- Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine
Vegetarian foods - powerful for health.

A vegetarian diet has been advocated by everyone from
philosophers such as Plato and Nietzsche, to political
leaders such as Benjamin Franklin and Gandhi, to modern 
pop icons such as Paul McCartney and Bob Marley. 
Science is also on the side of vegetarianism. A multitude
of studies have proven the health benefits of a 
vegetarian diet to be remarkable.

- About.com
Mangoes, Mangosteens and Lychees. 
Both mangoes and lychees have a long and noble history
in Chinese cuisine.  In particular, lychees have been
valued by successions of Chinese emperors for their
sweetness.  The lychee is native to the southern Chinese
provinces of Fukien and Kwangtung. 
According to legend, when courtiers first stumbled 
upon the lychee, they thought the fruit was so delicious 
that they rushed back in triumph to display their 
discovery to Emperor Han.

4 - Tangerines
There are different types of tangerines but the most well known
are clementines and Japanese Satsumas. The clergyman Pierre 
Clement crossed a mandarin and an orange and the 
outcome was a seedless mandarin with a looser skin thus 
easier to peel: the clementine. The satsuma is a 
crossing from Japan. Some tangerines can easily be 
selected in the store because they have a strong and 
sweet smell. If you find such tangerines buy them, 
you will not be disappointed.
