My First... Plum!

As a child I was an extremely fussy eater! I would eat apples as my sole fruit and carrots, corn and broccoli... Only because my mum made me. More recently my tastes have changed and expanded tremendously!!! However, there are still a number of things which are firsts even though it may seem crazy and normal to others. One of these is a plum!!!

Today I tried a plum for the first time and it was delicious!!! Being the food nerd that I am, I also checked up on it to see just how healthy it is. 

Turns out, plums are low in saturated fat, cholesterol, and sodium! They are a great source of fibre and contain vitamins A, C and K, as well as being packed with antioxidants. All this and low in calories!! 

Plums will not see the last of me!! And hopefully you will enjoy them as much as I just did!!
