Ice Cream Beans

Description

• Ice Cream beans are a source of calcium and phosphorous to build strong bones and teeth, fiber to regulate the digestive tract, and vitamin C to strengthen the immune system while reducing inflammation. The legumes also provide antioxidants to protect the cells against the stress caused by free radicals.

• The sweet flavour of the spongy pulp resembles that of vanilla ice cream, hence the name. Basically a yard-long candy bar that grows on a tree, most people will be sufficiently impressed by the size of this fruit and its delicious flavour.

• These curved pods have leathery, semi-thick green skin that becomes yellowish-brown when the fruits are fully ripe. Beneath this textured skin is fluffy white flesh encasing numerous seeds.
