ABSTRACT
From the point of view of consumption, fruits are plant products with aromatic ¤avor that are naturally sweet or normally sweetened before usage [1]. Apart from providing ¤avor and variety to human diet, they serve as important and indispensable sources of vitamins and minerals although they are not good or economic sources of protein, fat, and energy. The same is true in the case of vegetables, which also play an important role in human nutrition in supplying certain constituents in which other food materials are decient and in adding ¤avor, color, and variety to the diet [2].
