Ever wondered if a certain fruit contains vitamin C?

Simple test would be if it turns black when exposes to air.

Does turn black?
Yes = not much Vit C
No = probably contains Vit C ( or some other anti-oxidant)

Does it turn black?
Apple - yes
Orange - no
Avo - yes
Kiwi - no
Stawberries (actually any berry) - no
pear - yes

I'm sure this test is not foolproof but at least it's a simple indicator
.

Strawberries aren't actually a berry.. :whistle:
