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.
Berries â Blueberries, blackberries, strawberries and raspberries are delicate and should not be washed until ready to eat. Keep in refrigerator in dry, covered containers. Cherries & Grapes â Store in refrigerator, unwashed, in their packaged plastic containers or plastic bags until ready to wash and eat. Citrus fruit â Extend the shelf life of clementines, grapefruit, lemons, limes and oranges by storing them in the crisper drawer or in a mesh bag in the refrigerator.
