YOUR MISSION COMPLETED:
MEAT VS. VEGETABLES
Our first Delicious Duel of the summer was a close one! But ultimately, Gastroposters vegged out for this week’s mission, with meat lovers right behind and a strong showing from omnivores who couldn’t have one without the other. On these pages, Instagram handles are in brown and Twitter handles are in blue.

This week, we recognize another reason why summer is the best: berries! With cherries and strawberries already blossoming and many others — including raspberries, currants and Saskatoon berries — coming up across the country, it’s time to say thanks berry much for berries! Your mission is to celebrate these sweet treasures by eating something with berries. Whether it’s topping off a breakfast or dessert dish, making a surprising appearance in a savoury supper or enjoying them in a juice or on their own, show us why you’re very happy it’s berry season!
Jenna Fitchett @jfitch90 A salad with veggies and fruit will always win my heart over
