O my goodness....this weekend I discovered one of my new favorite
fruits- kiwiberries! On a whim, I saw these in my grocery store, and thought- why
not, I love kiwi, and these are marketed as an easy to eat version!

| Kiwiberry! |
After
just one bite, I knew I was sunk- it just exploded in delicious, juicy
flavor in my mouth! They are sweeter then kiwis, and you can just pop
them in your mouth like grapes! So, none of the annoying peeling that
you have to do with a kiwi. Unfortunately, they are expensive....this
tiny little container with maybe 10 little kiwiberries was $4.99 (I think, either that or $3.99). You
might be reading that and think I'm totally bonkers for even
purchasing....but then you might not fully understand my fruit
obsession. At any time, these are some of the must have fruits in my
kitchen....

| I love all melons, honeydew and cantaloupe are staples to me! |
 |
| Berries are a great natural antioxidant! Strawberries are a non-negotiable. |
 |
| Grapes are such an easy and filling snack- my favorite is green! |
 |
| Bananas are my favorite just woke up snack and post workout. Brain food! |
 |
| I love all apples, except Red Delicious. Not so delicious... |
So yeah....and I didn't even mention the other fruit I have most of the
time- pears, nectarines, and watermelon. I also get mangos,
clementines, and kiwis sometimes- maybe 1-2 a month.
My
name is Colleen, and I have a fruit addiction. The first step is
admitting, right? Well, I don't want to fix this particular ailment
because it's great to be a fruit addict, just a bit expensive....
What's your favorite fruit? Tried something lately? Share!
I have been on a blackberry kick lately. The kiwi berry sounds interesting
ReplyDeleteomg, I LOVE blackberies! My local grocery store was having a sale on them a couple weeks ago- 10 for $10 of the little size. I was eating them like they were going out of style!
DeleteI wish I could get on the bandwagon. Staying within my calorie budget would be so much easier if I ate fruit!
ReplyDeleteTotally, everyone has their own preferences. :) Do you have a go to veggie?
DeleteI love pineapple and blueberries. I am curious to try that kiwi though.
ReplyDeleteMy pineapple...how could I forget? Tasty indeed
DeleteI cannot afford a lot of fruits, but I do love them!!! Kiwi used to be my favorite fruit. Wonder if I can find kiwi berry around here... Hmmm. :)
ReplyDeleteWell, if you like kiwi, you will love these! Good luck finding the, Crystal! :)
DeleteThose sound heavenly!! Live in Nebraska, so doubtful I will ever find them. Oh well, strawberries with today lunch and they do taste great!
ReplyDeleteI had strawberries, too with lunch- nice choice!
Delete$4.99 is a lot of money, but if I compare it to the cost of a bag of Doritos (or insert your nemesis here) then it doesn't seem so bad. Good for you on trying new things.
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly the way I look at it, too :D
DeleteYou're so adorable! I love your fruit addiction. :-)
ReplyDelete:P
DeleteI'm with you on the fruit! Spent $30 today and came home with only fruit. I actually don't think I've met a fruit I didn't like....just some a little better than others! :) Thanks for the hint to watch for kiwiberries.
ReplyDeleteWe definitely have that in common! Let me know how you like the kiwiberries- I hope you do! :)
