Raspberries (and blackberries and all those similar) have a short shelf life which is why you rarely see them sold in stores. They might last a day or two but go bad fast (even with refrigeration.) Blueberries also go bad quickly but can last a bit longer. Yes, refrigerate them, but don't wait too long to eat.
1 Place fresh strawberries in shallow containers, cover them, and place in refrigerator. Itâs best to store them only 1 or 2 deep in a shallow container. 2  For best flavor after refrigerating, allow strawberries to reach room temperature before serving.  Do not rinse the berries until you are ready to eat them.
