Most of your Thanksgiving dinners today probably had some type of cranberry sauce.  My family goes for the traditional jellied sauce, but growing up, my parents always ground their own fresh sauce with oranges in a food mill.  No matter how you like them, you probably don’t know all of these facts about cranberries, including the belief that cranberries change from white to red based on cold nightly temperatures in the fall.  Food and Wine provide this list of five surprising facts about cranberries here along with a video on how they are harvested.
