Who knew that purple food could be so good. I just noticed this gem at the farmer's market Wednesday. It's a tad spicier than your typical cauliflower, but the purple is au natural.
Can we name all the purple food?
(this) cauliflower
Eggplant
Grapes
Potatoes
Cabbage
I also learned while looking up purple food that it can prevent breakdown of collagen and slow the wasting of muscles.. I think I'd like to eat more of it. Did you think of more?
Acai berry (maybe)
(Indian) Corn
Lavender (I eat it with goat cheese and honey on crackers..)

Excerpt from bee-young.com:
"Why are some fruits considered power fruits?
Power fruits are higher in antioxidants. Antioxidants protect plant tissue from damage from solar radiation and other environmental stressors. And when we consume that plant tissue, they protect our tissue from damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals are toxins produced by normal metabolism and present in other toxins such as tobacco smoke or car exhaust. So a diet higher in antioxidants protects us from these toxins and helps us stay healthier."
So, what other purple foods can we eat?
