Figs

So what’s the nutritional difference between fresh figs and the ones that come in the packets/containers?

Also, how does one store fresh figs? How long do they last?

The reason I ask is that my MIL loves figs and she’s visiting next week so I am off to do some groceries and needed to figure out what would be the best thing to buy. Normally she eats the Dole container ones but I think the fresh ones taste so much better.

lol, haha. You know it's one of the fruits of jannah...olives and pomengrantes being the other.

I guess they are a great source of fiber and good for your tummy, heart etc etc.

Dried figs are very good. I ate fresh figs for the first time in Kaghan valley plucked straight from tree and seriously it tasted entirely different to dried ones. To me, dried ones are the best.
