FOWLER, CA – Pumpkins, apples, and gourds are some classic fall favorites. But this autumn, Bee Sweet hopes families add citrus to that list by celebrating the season with delicious, healthy, citrus-themed treats.
“Now that fall has arrived, families will be gathering together to celebrate Halloween, Thanksgiving, and other seasonal celebrations,” said Director of Communications Monique Bienvenue in a press release. “Fortunately for us, our domestic mandarins, Navel oranges, Grapefruit, and Pommelos are arriving soon, and the versatility of these citrus varieties can be used to help celebrate festive occasions.”
According to the American Heart Association, about one in three American children and teens are overweight and obese, with childhood obesity ranking number one amongst parents as the biggest health concern. With spooky tips and tricks and yummy recipe ideas, Bee Sweet Citrus advocates health by transforming its Mandarins, Navels, Grapefruit, and Pommelos into tasty autumn favorites the whole family can enjoy.
“Serving healthy treats to your guests this fall season requires little to no effort at all,” continued Bienvenue. “Mandarins and oranges can easily be incorporated into a Halloween celebration, and Grapefruit varieties are often used to enhance traditional fall salads, which could work well for a Thanksgiving celebration.”
Bee Sweet citrus varieties are low in calories and can bring health and flavor to a wide range of foods. If you’re looking for something sweet, Navel oranges are known for being exceptionally sweet and are a great source of vitamin C, or if you’re looking for a versatile ingredient, Grapefruit and Pommelos are delicious as a stand-alone snack or salad topper.
