Dear All
I am doing a Marketing study of the US, European and Middle East market of crystallised fruits. I need data regarding consumption, main fruits, size of the marketing in those areas, preice, etc.
Can any of you be able to help me to finish this job to my studies, please?
Thanks for your help

Gigi,dried fruit in salads or trail mixes are a great way to get additional “fruit” servings per day. Try some dried cranberries that are occasionally available at Landmark…they are really good. Marinel, the groceries do carry some dried fruit…there is pineapple, sometimes durian, mangoes, papaya, etc. in the stores but their quality levels vary greatly from good eating to hard as rock varieties!

Hi MM. That is indeed very cheap for dried fruits. And the selection! Wow. Is there a place, anywhere, in PI that sells dried fruits? Rustans or SM maybe?

What a glorious post, MM! I’m into this dried fruits mode now throwing slivers of dried mangoes and prunes into my heaping bowl of salad baon for work. It’s so convenient kasi for one esp for a single condo-dwelling girl like me… I always end up with rotting mangoes, strawberries and grapes even when I buy ‘em in the barest of portions. Man, I wish I could get my hands on dried strawberries! That would have been so great! :)
