Passion fruit is another tropical fruit (technically a berry) that is native to the South American region, believed to originate in Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina.
Cultivation of the fruit now happens throughout the tropical and subtropical regions of the world.
Passion fruit is one of the more unique fruits, and it is about the size of a golf ball. A hard, brown outer shell surrounds a yellow, gelatinous sticky, and sweet flesh.
This sweet pulp is comparable to tomatoes; it is very juicy and contains lots of edible seeds.
However, there are many different varieties of passion fruit, and some (such as the ‘golden passion fruit’) are the size of a large grapefruit.
Despite passion fruit being one of the higher-carb fruits, about 50% of these carbs come from fiber.
