Radishes.....

Are so yummy! I know I might be the only one here that might say that, but I love them. I often worry that I love them as to me, they taste like dirt (what I assume dirt would taste like) and it is really hard for me to eat just one. I usually end up eating a handful of them. The fact that they taste like dirt and I love them makes me worry about the next logical step.

I digress.

Since I was munching on them today, I was wondering about their health benefits and if they had any. Do they ever! Vitamin C, potassium, folic acid and antioxidents and even calcium! I am attaching a link for you all to read up on them if you want to nerd out on them like me.

I see this as periphery bonus to 6FIT, I've actually been finding out about food and what is good (and not good) and the nutritional value to what I put in my mouth.

I also love beets and lima beans but I will save those for another time.

So tell me, what is the 'odd' fruit or veggie you love??? I would also challenge you to find out why it is good for you! Maybe we will all find a new favorite.

Long live radishes!
