Nutritional Facts
A large kiwifruit contains more than twice the vitamin C of an orange,
about 230 percent of the United States recommended daily allowance.
Kiwifruit contains no fat, very little sodium, and as much potassium as
a banana (340 mg per 100 g). It averages 45 calories.


The juice of kiwifruit contains actinidin, a meat-tenderizing enzyme,

and can be used in meat marinades. To tenderize meat, rub kiwifruit
over its surface or puree kiwifruit flesh and spread it on meat that has
been pricked with a fork or knife. Allow the meat to stand 30 minutes
for every inch of thickness. Tenderized meat will cook more quickly.
