WHAT IS #2 FRUIT?
Ugly Fruit Deserves Love Too! #2 fruit is fruit that may have minor blemishes or damage that does not affect freshness or taste. These blemishes can be surface-level, such as sun burn or minor pest damage from things like codling moth, which can be easily cut away. You may have heard this referred to as “ugly” or “imperfect” produce. Ugly fruit is perfect for baking, juicing, preserving, or processing. In some cases, like watercore (sought after for making superior tasting applesauce or pressed cider due to its high concentration of sugars), “blemishes” can make your creations even MORE delicious!
