Lime
Good nutritional profile
Raw lime flesh without the peel.
Limes are small, sour citrus fruits used mostly for their juice and grated zest in drinks, dressings, marinades, and Latin American and Southeast Asian cooking. One lime, about 67 g of flesh, has under 25 kcal and about 20 mg of vitamin C, roughly a fifth of the daily value. Much of the carbohydrate figure is citric acid and fiber rather than sugar: only 1.7 g per 100 g is sugar.
