New Products at Healthy Living: South Burlington, VT (January 2, 2017)

PRODUCE:

Conventional Black Garlic: Black garlic has been fermented, and tastes almost nothing like raw garlic.  It is very sweet, and has a very soft texture, pretty much perfect for pureeing or pasting with herbs and seasonings to use as a rub. It has an even higher antioxidant content than garlic does, due to the fermentation process.

Organic African Shaddock Pomelos: Deer Creek Heights (Buck Brand) This is an old variety of pomelo, super sweet and pretty large! Pomelo is basically a large grapefruit without almost any of the characteristic grapefruit bitterness.

Organic Florida Green Coconuts: These are immature coconuts, just like the “Young Thai” coconuts that we get.  The difference is that these are grown in Florida – so much closer to us than Thailand! They have the green shell intact.  Young Thai coconuts are the ones that are peeled, shaped into a cone (for better packing/shipping) and wrapped.  The Florida ones will be big, green, and rounder. What’s the difference? If you’re looking for coconut meat, you want mature ones.  If you’re looking for coconut water/milk, you want the young ones.

Organic 4# Valencia (Juicing) Orange Bags

Organic 1# Kiwi Bags

Organic Sweet Limes – Deer Creek Heights (Buck Brand) Sweet limes don’t contain more sugar than regular limes, rather, they contain less acid – so you can taste the sweetness. They are also sweetest and fully mature when they are yellow, not green.  Traditionally used in Indian cooking and as a homeopathic cure for bellyaches.
