In the United States, acne is the most common skin problem affecting 40 to 50 million people at any one time, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. Dead skin cells, too much oil and bacteria cause acne. While current research seems to indicate that diet may play a role in the development of acne, there's no direct connection between strawberries and blemishes.
Strawberries, Diet and Acne

Current research seems to indicate that milk, chocolate and foods with a high-glycemic index, such as sweets and processed carbohydrates like white bread, may play a role in acne development of acne. In addition to not being connected to acne, strawberries also have a low glycemic index, making it a good food to eat if you have acne.
