Description

We should all eat this delicious fruit. (I was pretty lucky I came across some at my local farmer's market). Why? Because....some wonderful health benefits of eating cape gooseberries.

1. Store house of Vitamin C and antioxidants
2. Good for your eyes
3. Controls high blood pressure
4. Bone strength
5. Can control diabetes 
6. Promotes weight Loss
7. Eases digestion
8. Anti-Inflammatory properties 
9. Fights cold and flu

Cape gooseberries are very mildly sweet when ripe (they are toxic if eaten unripe). It's not as juicy as a cherry tomato but they have little seeds in them that give them a slight crunch. This website describes the taste as “something like a tomato with a sourness at the end like cranberries.”
