no. Vaccinium uliginosum is a kind of Ericaceae plant. Its fruit is a berry, and its color is blue or red, which is almost round. Because it is similar to blueberry, it is often mistaken for blueberry, but the difference between the two is very big.
1. They are produced in different places.
Vaccinium and blueberry are different on the site. Vaccinium is mainly produced in Finland or Sweden, and it is a berry plant in northern Europe, while blueberry is a berry plant widely grown in New Zealand, Australia, the United States and Chile.
2. The anthocyanin content of blueberry and blueberry is different
In terms of anthocyanin content, the content of blueberry is about 4 to 5 times higher than that of blueberry. This is mainly because blueberry grows in northern Europe, near the North Pole, and the sunshine time is longer in the white night. In addition, when you cut the pulp, you will find that although the skin of blueberry is blue-purple, its pulp is not this color, but the blueberry is the same as the outside, regardless of the skin or pulp.
3. Their uses are different
In terms of uses, cranberries are generally sold as raw materials of health food, so they can be regarded as a health care product. However, blueberries generally belong to the common food class because of their low effective content, and their main function is to eat them.
4. The prices of the two are different
Because of the previous differences, the prices of the two are different. Vaccinium, which comes from northern Europe and has high anthocyanin content and health care function, is naturally much higher than that of blueberry. However, because the price fluctuates greatly, the specific prices of the two need to be determined according to the market.
