RAW

By Amy Roskelley at Super Healthy Kids
My kids have been fans of kiwi for a very long time. And thank goodness!

Kiwi has: 95% of the daily value for Vitamin C (more than
an orange!), almost 3 grams of fiber for one tiny fruit .

My kids like kiwi the way they like sour candy. Kiwi has that “tart-sour” taste that happens to
be sweet at the same time. But sometimes, it's hard to eat. It's so juicy and there really is no
where to hold your fruit. It's one of the few fruits I think is actually easier to eat with a fork.
So, instead of sour candy we decided to cut some kiwi up and freeze it and called them
"suckers". Really I guess you could call them popsicles because they are frozen, but they
were small like suckers, so that is what we did.

1

Cut the kiwi by
taking the ends
off first.

Take the skin off by getting
your knife between the skin
and the flesh, and sawing all the
way around until the skin is
removed.

3

Slice horizontally,
so you have discs
of kiwi.

Place toothpicks
into you kiwi
circles, and freeze!

Next time you have some
kiwi, give it a try. I promise
your kids will love the

new way to eat kiwi!!
G Team Note: Kiwi’s are great for
digestion in kids and adults!
