Pears are a delicious, sweet, and juicy fruit.
They grow naturally all around the world, but their origin, like many other fruits, lies in China.
There are so many different types of pear in the world, ranging from the classic “pear-shaped” European species to the large, round Chinese/Korean pear.
However, all pears share the same thin, crisp skin, and sweet, juicy white flesh.
Pears have the sweetness of an apple mixed with a kind of mild, citrus-like flavor and smell.
The flesh is crunchy as you bite into it, with a large amount of water locked inside.
In fact, pears are around 84% water content by weight, giving them one of the highest water content out of all fruits.
The nutritional content of pears offers a decent range of vitamins and minerals, but it is not particularly high in any specific nutrient.
