Nutrition
Kiwifruit
is
rich
in
vitamin
C,
having
ten
times
more
than
the
equal
weight
of
a
lemon.
Two
fruits
have
almost
twice
the
vitamin
C
of
an
orange
and
more
potassium
than
a
comparable
serving
of
bananas.
High
in
fiber,
it
also
offers
vitamin
A,
Vitamin
E,
calcium
and
iron.
Credit
goes
to
all
those
little
black
seeds,
as
they
act
much
like
grains,
providing
lots
of
nutrition.
Fun
Fact
In
China,
the
fruit
was
known
as
yang-tao,
which
means
strawberry
peach.
Europeans
changed
the
name
to
Chinese
Gooseberry
to
describe
the
flavor
and
color
of
the
pulp.
New
Zealand
farmers
changed
the
name
of
the
fruit
to
kiwifruit
in
1962
in
honor
of
the
kiwi,
the
national
bird
of
New
Zealand.
In
1974
kiwifruit
became
the
official
trade
name.
