Default Frozen Bing Cherries

I'm in the habit of eating fruit with yogurt or cottage cheese, and saw
these in Target's frozen section. They are Target's house brand (whatever it
is) and are 12-oz bags of bing cherries frozen with no sugar added for $2.
(On sale.)

I figured for $2, why not? I got the blueberries too.

Well, they're good. Texture lacks something compared to fresh, but that is
to be expected. They are not slimy, just not as firm as fresh of course.
Delicious, and something to have around this winter.

I like frozen cherries and berries. I only buy them when they're on
sale, but they're always yummy. I like the berries thawed with 40%
cream and Splenda. That mixture is nice straight, with cereal, and
especially over ice cream.

The cherries would probably well suited for a claffouti.

We also bought some frozen cherries and frozen blueberries. They were on
sale and much cheaper than the alleged 'fresh' fruit. The 'fresh' fruit
around here is rarely truly fresh...

The cherries were used to make jam, which worked beautifully. The
blueberries are eaten with yoghurt or on top of cereal. Don't have
enough left for jam.
We rinse them off before eating though.
