SOLAR GOLD DRIED FRUIT

One of the most consumed fruits in the world, it's no wonder Mango is our best seller. While still somewhat exotic to North American diets, in tropical countries like India, The Philippines and Brazil it is a time-honoured dietary staple. We dry the Kent and Ataulfo varieties (pronounced with four syllables as A·ta·úl·fo) for their smooth texture and distinctive flavour. We also preserve the digestive enzymes: the fruit never exceeds 35 degrees Celsius in the drying process... Pineapple is our second biggest seller and is made from the flavourful Cayenne variety. It contains significant amounts of Bromelain a crucial enzyme for digesting the dense proteins in meat and fish. Pineapple originates in Paraguay, probably among the Guarani people, made famous in the movie "The Mission". High in vitamin C, pineapple was spread across the globe by British sailors who ate them to ward off scurvy.
