Unlike the typical kiwi fruit, which is larger and fuzzy, kiwi berries are only grape-sized (sometimes as big as a small plum) and smooth-skinned. They are also much sweeter. No messy peeling, no fuss, no fuzz... just ready to pop in your mouth and eat. They are great for snacks, adding to lunch boxes, or adding to your cooking.
Kiwi berries contain almost 20 nutrients and are high in antioxidants.
They have as much as five times the vitamin C of an orange.
Kiwi berries have twice the vitamin E of an avocado, but with only 60% of the calories.
They are also high in vitamin A, which is great for the skin, teeth and bones.
These amazing berries have the same amount of B6 as a serving of spinach. There are not many foods as rich in this important nutrient as kiwi berries.
Kiwi berries are rich in folic acid, are high in fibre, have a 'higher per ounce' potassium content than bananas, are an extraordinary source of chromium, and have almost no sodium.
And they are delicious!
