  1. Unfortunately I don’t eat anything from this color group. I should definitely work on it. Thanks for sharing. 🙂

  2. Love the list of blue fruits for sure and packed with antioxidants .
    In fact blue gets skipped quite often… There are a few non native veggies in here as well … But they can easily be consumed through the fruits and onions or red cabbage that is easily available now in India
