[ Kiwi ]
New Zealand growers adopted the name kiwifruit for the Chinese gooseberry in the mid 1960's, believing it to be more palatable than a reference to the hairy bird which its hairy exterior resembles.In France, kiwifruit translates to souris vegetales, meaning vegetable mouse. It's an apt description, albeit not very appetizing.
Did you know? Kiwifruit could also be used as a natural meat tenderizer? That's because kiwifruit contains an enzyme called Actinidin. Just cut in half and rub kiwifruit over the meat, or peel and mash with a fork then spread it on the surface of the meat and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes or longer.
