06 Feb Reasons to eat seasonal
- Save your money
Everybody likes to hear that you can save money doing something easy, right? So yes. Eating seasonal is also great for your pocket! This is because there is a greater production in the season and, therefore, a relative abundance of the crop usually makes fruits and vegetables less expensive.
- Better taste
When you buy a product that is not in season, you can find that there is a lack in their flavor and color. And nobody likes that right? We all want our fruits and products looking radiant!
- More variety of foods every season
The Variety of fruits and vegetables in each season variates. So you can not only eat certain fruits in the summer or in spring, you can enjoy them in almost all seasons. Examples are: apples, grapes, mushrooms, kale, leeks…
- Less distance: better nutrients and flavor
It doesn’t occur with every food but, normally, long shippings with refrigerated fruits or vegetables affect the quality, the flavor and the texture of the product during the trip.
So, remember to look at the vegetable and fruit season calendar. Depending on your location, you’ll like to eat one product or another to receive all the nutrients and to enhance your recipes!
