Product Description:
Kiwi fruit, also known as kiwifruit, is a small, oval-shaped berry with fuzzy brown skin and bright green flesh dotted with tiny, edible black seeds. Its flavor is a unique blend of sweet and tangy, often compared to strawberry, rhubarb, and gooseberry. While the skin is edible, many people prefer to peel it before eating.
