40 Tropical Fruit Finds

From Kiwi Lawn Mowers to Coconut Headphones

— January 31, 2010 — Eco
I recently found myself on a website which has the list of every tropical fruit on the planet. Why was I there? Well, the Internet is a hell of a drug.

Needless to say, my ventures into the colorful land of tropical fruit inspired me to create this tropical fruit cluster. So peel a banana or slice up a kiwi and enjoy.

Implications - From fruity fortresses to fruit sushi, these trends feature your favorite fruits. And since you need at least five servings for the day, take a gander through these tropical fruit finds and fulfill your daily requirement without having to open your mouth.
