Season’s Best in Fruits & Vegetables with Melissa’s Robert Schueller, the “Prince of Produce”

It’s the new year and we’re always trying to creatively add more appealing fruits and vegetables to our daily meals. What are some great specialty produce items to consider for 2025 ? We’re joined by our resident produce authority, Robert Schueller of Melissa’s (also known as the “Prince of Produce” or the “Guru of Produce,”) for a “fresh of the season” overview.“Consider something different in the everyday apples? How about Hunnyz Apples and Wild Twist Apples ? Hunnyz Apples are a new sweet and crispy apple variety from Washington that is ready to meet your taste buds! Hunnyz® Apples are perfect for salads, charcuterie boards and baking, with just the amount of sweetness, crunch and tang you crave. With the perfect balance of crunch and flavor that says it all, Hunnyz® Apples pair well with citrus, honey, pistachios and soft brie.” “If you love Honeycrisp apples, then you’ll love the new WildTwist® apple! A natural cross of the ever-popular Honeycrisp and Cripps Pink apples, the WildTwist® hits right down the middle of sweet, tart and crunchy. It’s the perfect snacking apple; it bakes great, and it’s slow to oxidize, making it wonderful for fresh salads.”
