In America, little is known about the new-found weight loss product, the acai berry fruit. The fruit can be found in the Amazon forest of Brazil and is consumed daily for the large population of people settled around the forest, where the food sources are always scarce. They know all about the taste, but since the fruit starts to deteriorate after it is picked, it would be nothing by the time it is shipped over to America.

In this case, let's take a look at the tastes experienced from the source of the acai berry fruit. The berry is a dark purple and sometimes almost black in color. It grows in bulk pods, like grapes, and hangs from the tall skinny palm trees they grow on in the swampy and wet lands, and has a seed inside it that is 80% of the berries mass. It has been known around the Amazon villages to be the most beneficial fruit grown in the Amazon forest. With its chocolaty, raspberry, blueberry taste, it sure hits the spot you could ever imagine. The acai berry fruit includes chocolate for your sweet tooth, raspberry for your bitterness needs, and blueberries to put a little sour shock into your day.

The taste is much different here in the United States. The taste of the fruit has fewer flavors, as it is always mixed with other fruity flavors. The acai berry fruit is mixed with blueberry, orange, banana, and peach flavors for juices. Juices are not the only way they get acai berry fruit to the U.S. They also create powders for shakes and drinks, candy bars with the berry in it, and capsules with the berry in it.

Maybe, someday you might have the chance to head to the Amazon to and personally try your very own acai berry fruit. Until then, try one of the American versions of powder, bars, juices, and capsules in any of the different flavors, to see some healthy changes in your life.
