The Fruit Aficionado | Real Fruit Smoothies


Ever wonder who selects all the fresh and delicious fruit for Tropical Smoothie Café’s 280 locations? Introducing Patagonia Food. TSC has worked with Gary Bernstein of Patagonia for a number of years now. Gary is a great guy and real fruit aficionado. He’s such an expert on fruit that we’ve recently dubbed him our resident “Fruit Guru.”

Gary informed us that the California Strawberry Commission recently came out with a definitive study that indicated strawberries to be essentially a food with ‘superfood-like’ qualities. As fans of TSC know, strawberries are a key ingredient in many of our smoothies, including the always popular JettyPunch™.

We’ll be sharing the latest fruit information from our Fruit Guru and more details on how he goes about sourcing the highest-quality fruit for TSC on subsequent posts. So stay tuned!
