Fruits of Brazil

One of the things I realized here is that fruit seems to be longer:

Long Pineapple
Long Kiwi

Apart from the “mutation” of fruits here, Brazil is of course home to many exotic fruits, many of which are found in the Amazon.

Besides these “mutant” fruits, Brazil is home to many fruits unfamiliar to the “Western” world.

cupuaçú, really dont like how this fruit tastes but apparently it is a superfood. www.21food.com
Acerola, looks like a cherry but it is super sour. Source: http://www.eckes-granini.com/
Açaí is a famed superfood packed with antioxidents. It is a berry but eaten normally as a ice slush. Source: www.vaporall.com
Jackfruit, relative of the Durian.

I love using the exotic fruit derivatives from Brazil… Conditioner from acerola, conditioner from cocoa butter, shampoo of chestnut from the state of Pará
