They stained pretty badly. Do some varieties of blacks stain less than others? Do cooked berries stain less?
Yes, some of the blacks stain very little, apparently. Pakistan is claimed to be "non-staining." My Illinois Everbearing, though, definitely turned your fingers purple for the day.
Good luck with the white. I like their delicate honey-like flavor.
