That's not an egg, it's a gold kiwi! I think they've been in the markets around Toronto for quite some time now, but I've been uncharacteristically slow to pick-up on this new food trend. I don't often buy kiwis since Paul's allergy to them gives him an itchy mouth. But, I think I'll change that habit. These are a nice mellow fruit with a soft flesh, and much less tangy than green kiwis. Plus, they're fun to eat as little vegan eggs in a cup!

Gold kiwis just arrived at the markets here - I bought a few the other day, and LOVE THEM!! :0)
I keep checking the grocery store for them, but no luck. Get with it Illinois, I want a golden kiwi!
I remember a few years ago, they were handing these out as samples at Loblaws with these funky little lime green plastic spoons with teeth (like a fork/spoon I guess). Anyway, wrapped around the utensil was a pamphlet (which I kept) with very interesting info on the golden kiwi. I have to say I was enlightened regarding the awesome nutritional power packed in those sweet and tangy fuzzy little packages: Twice as much vitamin C as oranges. As much potassium as bananas (with much fewer calories). A source of vitamin E (unusual for a low-fat food), folic acid, and lutein (good for your eyes). Huge anti-oxidant properties. Anti-coagulant properties (particularly significant for those with high blood pressure or a predisposition to heart disease) - and the list goes on and on. It's a superfood! And, they're delicious. I haven't seen them around lately - I'm in the GTA so I'll keep my eyes peeled.
Very nice photo, by the by :)
How do you dip toasty soldiers in a kiwi????
Hey! I just moved back to Toronto after a 5-year hiatus (YAYAYAYAY). Never really checked out the markets except for the cheap chinatown veggies. Could you recommend some good produce markets? thanks! -Maureen
Aw! This looks like a cute and tasty idea.
Gold kiwis?! How pretty! I'll have to keep my eyes out for them.
I've never tried golden kiwis, but I love regular kiwis, so I'm sure I'd love them! I'll keep an eye out for them.
I LOVE GOLD KIWI!!!
And, as an aside, green kiwi used to make my mouth itch, just like Paul, but gold kiwi never have! I don't want Paul to get sick, but he might be able to eat the gold ones??
That is so cute! I'm sure we won't be able to get them here in tinytown...
That looks so cute! I love kiwis.
I've never seen a golden kiwi! And never did I think I'd see an egg cup on a vegan blog.
hi mate, this is the canadin pharmacy you asked me about: the link
what a fun & creative idea! i love it! :D
Haha adorable! I love kiwi - but I get the itchy mouth thing too :-( Sometimes I just suck it up and deal with the weird feeling because they're so good.
golden kiwi? but I call kiwi "green delicious" that can't be applied to the yellow ones... ugh...
i do want one, or 10, though... and I esp like your "display"
