Bright and Healthy

This article is reason #87923829 to eat your vegetables.

It made me want to go and gnaw a bright, ruby red heirloom tomato right off the vine over at Hamakua Springs Country Farms. Here's what the article is about:

Understanding the molecular structures of compounds that give certain fruits and vegetables their rich colors may help researchers find even more powerful cancer fighters, a new study suggests.

We might as well just ingest some of those rich colors straight up, don't you think?

Remember, think "bright colors" next time you're in the produce section.

What a gorgeous photo of the tomatoes. I know you folks don't wax your produce, so that beautiful sheen on the tomatoes is "pure healthy!"

I know. Aren't they beautiful? And, they are our favoite large tomatoes. We don't wax any of our products. The whole concept of waxing just does not appeal to us.
