An average serving of kiwi has tons of vitamin C and more potassium than a banana. The emerald-fleshed, oval-shaped fruit has a slightly gelatinous texture with flavor hints of strawberry, melon, banana and pineapple. Ready to eat when soft to the touch; cut in rounds for a lovely mosaic pattern of flesh and seeds, scoop out flesh to toss in the blender, cube for fruit salads.
