Rambutan - lb

The Rambutan is a tropical tree known for its sweet, juicy fruit with a 'hairy' red skin. The fruit is round and covered in soft, hair-like spines while its flesh is sweet, juicy, and meatier than a Lychee although they are similar. 

To eat a Rambutan, peel off the outer skin and cut or bite the flesh off of the inner seed. Eat them raw as a delicious snack, in fruit salads, smoothies, desserts, or processed into jams or juices! Only the inner flesh is edible, so please dispose of the seed and skin. 

Rambutans are High in vitamin C which can help to boost the immune system. They contain dietary fiber which aids digestion, and are rich in copper which is essential for creating red blood cells! The vitamin and antioxidant compounds in the fruit could even benefit your skin and hair health! So grab a Rambutan and enjoy a guilt-free sweet snack!
