Pink Lady apples are grown in the greatest wine regions of the world, and owe their warm blush to the sun.

Naturally exhilarating, Pink Lady is a source of pleasure. ‘I’m under a spell’, ‘it’s irresistibly attractive’, ‘utterly seductive’ are just some of the ways our consumers express their appreciation, far more intensely than for other apples.

2) Should I peel a Pink Lady before biting into it?
No, please don’t peel it! 50% of the vitamins provided are contained in its skin. So wash it well and don’t wait any longer, bite into it whole-heartedly for a true taste sensation !

Purple Kohlrabi

You've probably seen purple kohlrabi around recently and wondered what the heck this odd-shaped thing with the weird name is! Well, it's a fantastically versatile vegetable with a taste and texture somewhere between cabbage and broccoli stems.

Purple Kohlrabi is part of the Cruciferous family of vegetables, scientifically known as Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes. The word ‘Kohlrabi’ comes from the Germanic words for cabbage, ‘kohl’, and turnip, ‘rabi’. It was given its name for the close resemblance to both a cabbage, and a turnip, with its bulbous stem sitting on top of the ground. The Purple variety is a bit less common than its green counterpart.

Nutritional Value
The purple pigment in the skin and leaves of Purple Kohlrabi comes from the presence of anthocyanins, which are cancer-fighting compounds. The pigment is only present in the skin and leaves, lined with purplish-red veins, so therefore the cancer-fighting benefits are mostly present in the leaves of Purple Kohlrabi. Kohlrabi is high in vitamin C and a good source of both fiber and potassium. The nutrient-dense tuber also contains high amounts of phosphorus, magnesium, calcium and iron. Kohlrabi, like other cruciferous vegetables, contains anti-cancer phytochemicals and is considered beneficial for good health.

Organic Yellow Tomatoes

Yellow tomatoes taste great raw. Cutting up a handful and mixing with avocados, pomegranate seeds with a touch of sea salt and splash of olive oil makes for a quick and delicious healthy snack.

But the health benefits may be greater when eating them cooked as recent research shows that heating tomatoes enhances their anti-carcinogenic powers. My favorite food is pasta and unlike Italian-American marinara sauces, which heavily rely on canned tomatoes, require adding sugar and take hours to cook; authentic Italian sauce is made from fresh tomatoes and should take no longer than 30 minutes to make. I prefer to use fresh yellow cherry tomatoes because of the naturally sweeter flavor. I highly suggest that you try it.

Lycopene is known for its many health benefits. It has been correlated to reducing the risk of cancer, heart disease and macular degenerative disease. But a common misconception is that lycopene is associated with the red pigment of tomatoes. However, yellow tomatoes also contain lycopene and recent studies such as one published in the International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition suggest that the benefits of the antioxidant may be greater when consumed via yellow tomatoes.

Red tomatoes contain trans-lycopene and yellow tomatoes contain tetra-cis-lycopene. The antioxidant is equally potent in both forms but the human body is more readily able to absorb lycopene in the cis-form. This study supports that tangerine yellow tomatoes are a better source of lycopene because your body is able to get more usable lycopene from them.
