Coincidence? We think not! In fact, Ocean Spray Craisins® is teaming up with the Women’s National Basketball Association’s Be Fit Tour, which encourages teens and women of all ages to learn more about their bodies and the importance of physical fitness. We’ll be traveling with WNBA teams to 14 cities throughout the spring and summer, sharing the positive health benefits of smart eating, physical fitness, and being good to yourself.

Bounce into Better Health & Fitness

Back in the 1880s, a New Jersey cranberry grower named John “Peg Leg” Webb accidentally “dribbled” a pail of cranberries down his barn steps – and discovered they bounce. To this day, cranberries are graded for quality using special “bounce boards.” Not unlike basketballs, pockets of air inside ripe cranberries give them “hang time.”

What else do basketballs and cranberries have in common? Make eating right into a game – one that you always win – and you’ll have fun and be fit!

  • Try a slam dunk: Eating right doesn’t mean that you can’t have a sweet treat every now and then. When a cookie craving takes hold, dunk some of our deliciously-nutritious Oatmeal Cranberry White Chocolate Chunk Cookies in a cold glass of milk.
  • Build a great starting lineup: It’s true: breakfast is the most important meal of the day. We all need an energy-packed start to get through busy mornings, without collapsing on the sidelines. Make up batches of Craisins® Breakfast Mix to keep on hand for action-packed mornings.
  • Send in a substitute: Instead of raisins, toss Craisins® Sweetened Dried Cranberries into your favorite baked recipes. They add a burst of flavor that can’t be beat.
  • Turn back the clock: Try working out in the morning. It’s harder to skip and it makes you feel great all day. With spring here, try a new routine. Get up a little earlier and enjoy a walk at sunrise, or exercise to a fun work-out video or CD, followed by a hearty breakfast. You’ll feel so much better the rest of the day—both in body and mind.
  • Blow the whistle on tired menus: Time to referee those recipes! Does dinner seem like an Instant Replay, over and over? Our Effortless Spinach Salad is a great alternative to the everyday salad. Try it for lunch or as a side dish to grilled chicken at dinnertime.
