Kiwifruit is a nutritious, refreshing fruit with many nutrients that are beneficial to the human body. However, in the market, we often see the name kiwifruit, which is very similar to kiwifruit, but it is quite a bit higher than kiwi. So, what's the difference between the two?
First of all, from a botanical point of view, kiwi and kiwifruit belong to different plant species. Kiwi is a plant that belongs to the Kiwi family, whereas kiwi is a variant of Kiwi and belongs to a species of the genus Kiwi. So, despite their similar appearance and taste, they are not the same fruit.
Secondly, in terms of origin, kiwifruit is native to China, while kiwifruit was brought back to New Zealand from China by New Zealanders. Therefore, kiwifruit is produced in New Zealand, while kiwifruit is in China. Due to the different origins, kiwifruit is more expensive than kiwifruit, which also makes some merchants name kiwifruit as kiwifruit for higher profits.
In addition to the botanical and regional differences, kiwifruit and kiwifruit also have some differences in appearance, taste, nutritional content, etc. First of all, they have a slightly different appearance. The surface of kiwi fruit is covered with fine hairs, whereas the surface of kiwifruit is smoother. Also, kiwi has a sour taste, while kiwi fruit is sweeter. In terms of nutritional content, the nutritional value of kiwifruit is different from that of kiwifruit, as it contains more vitamin C and other nutrients that are beneficial to the human body.
In conclusion, kiwi and kiwifruit, although very similar, are not the same fruit. Pay attention to distinguishing them when buying in order to choose the right fruit for you. At the same time, we should also be careful not to be fooled by the false propaganda of some merchants, so as not to buy low-quality fruits.
