You need to try freeze-dried muscadines! They taste really good, the texture is great, and you can enjoy all the nutritional benefits of the fruit!

Amazing how postharvest techniques can make huge improvements in food quality.

Freeze-dried muscadines are a great opportunity for #Muscadine growers in Florida and in the southeastern US. They are crunchy, sweet, and contain a huge amount of antioxidants. Have you already tried them? Check this! edis.ifas.ufl.edu/publication/HS…
