LIMES (Spain) 250g

Organic Limes weighing 250 grams

There is still not quite enough sunshine and heat in Yorkshire for limes to thrive so we have to look further afield but all are grown to stringent organic criteria. Usually the limes come from Mexico and will add a little sunshine to lift any dish.

Reasons to eat limes:

• Packed with Vitamin C like other citrus fruits, limes help to keep your immune system functioning well and your skin in top condition.
• Contain types of flavonoid that have been shown to be protective against cancer, in particular against oral cancers.
• These same compounds have also been found to have strong antibacterial properties and lime juice has been shown to help kill off cholera epidemics when added to rice and sauces after cooking,
