Cranberries are small, tart, red berries that grow on low, trailing vines in acidic bogs. They are rich in antioxidants, vitamin C, and fiber, making them a popular superfood. Commonly consumed as juice, dried fruit, or sauce, cranberries are known for their potential health benefits, including supporting urinary tract health and reducing inflammation. They are widely grown in North America and are a staple in holiday dishes, especially cranberry sauce served with Thanksgiving meals.
