WHY TO LIMIT IT ON KETO

  • Not recommended: ~15.3g net carbs per 100g is very high for keto
  • Concentrated sweetness with low satiety (almost no fat/protein)
  • Tannins can cause astringency and may prompt extra snacking
  • Seasonal availability can trigger cravings—plan alternatives
  • Even small servings can spike sugar and disrupt ketosis
  • If included at all, treat as a rare, budgeted exception

PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS

VERY RARE TREAT

Reserve for a special occasion; limit to ~30g (a thin slice) and reduce carbs elsewhere that day.

DEHYDRATED THIN SLICE

Dry one paper-thin slice to use as a concentrated garnish—small flavor, minimal portion.

TEA INFUSION

Steep a small slice in Herbal Tea or Black Tea for aroma; remove the fruit before drinking.

HOLIDAY DESSERT

If making a shared dessert, use tiny diced bits for color/flavor and keep your portion minimal.
