PRO TIPS FOR MAKING THE BEST OUT OF OUR TOP SELLING FRUITS

  1. AVOCADOS

    Avocado is a stone fruit with a creamy texture that grows in warm climates. Their potential health benefits include improving digestion, decreasing the risk of depression, and protecting against cancer. You can tell how ripe an avocado is by gently pressing into the skin. If the avocado is firm and does not budge, you will need to let it ripen for a few days before consuming it. Soft avocados make great guacamole or dip, while firmer avocados are great for slicing and adding to a salad or a sandwich. To speed up the ripening process, place an avocado in a paper bag with a banana. Order fruits online from Fruitbox & Co. and have them delivered to your doorstep in no time!

Quick tips:

  • Spread avocado on toast in the morning instead of butter.
  • Use avocado instead of mayonnaise in chicken or egg salad, or as a spread on a sandwich.
  • The soft, creamy texture of an avocado and its mild taste makes it a perfect first food for babies.

  1. MANGOSTEEN

    Mangosteen is a tropical fruit originating from Southeast Asia. It’s revered for its many potential health benefits - most of which are related to its nutritional profile and unique antioxidant content. Fresh mangosteen may be difficult to come by, as it’s a relatively obscure fruit. Its juicy and delicately sweet flavor makes it a delicious addition to smoothies and fruit salads. Try it for its culinary appeal or potential health benefits - it’s a win either way. Order fruits online from Fruitbox & Co. to get lip-smacking, fresh, and juicy fruits delivered on your desired day.

    Here are some steps on how you can relish Mangosteen correctly:
  • Simply score the outer rind with a serrated knife along the centerline of the fruit, trying not to slice through to the pulp.
  • Next, twist off the top half and the edible sections of the fruit are ready to be eaten. Just be careful not to let any juice from the purple rind stain your clothes because it can be difficult to wash off.
You can eat the sections by themselves as a snack or you can add them to healthy recipes.
