Questions and answers

Frequently Asked Questions About Fruit Salad

Why does dripping lemon juice over cut fruit keep it fresh?
Citric acid and vitamin C in lemon juice lower the pH level and block polyphenol oxidase, an enzyme that causes fruit flesh to brown upon oxidation.
Which fruits are best to add right before serving a fruit salad?
Soft or moisture-heavy fruits like bananas, crisp apples, and fresh strawberries are best added last so they maintain their texture and color without becoming soggy.
Are fruit salads healthier when made with fresh or canned fruit?
Fresh fruits contain more active vitamins and no added syrup, making them a more nutritious choice than canned options packed in sugary liquid.
