what is fig - #23440

Wyatt

I am really confused about this whole thing with figs. So, I recently started exploring different fruits for their health benefits after I read about them online. There was this article that caught my attention talking about figs, and I had no clue about what figs actually are! I thought they were just some dried fruit that you throw in a trail mix or something. But then I found out that fresh figs are a thing, and honestly, I can’t remember ever seeing one, let alone trying them. I even went to a local farmer's market hoping to find some because I wanted to see if they really taste good or how to eat them. But like, what is fig really? Are there different types? I heard they are super healthy, packed with fiber and all that, but can they help with anything specific? Sometimes, I worry if they're hard to digest or something. Last week, I came across these dried figs and bought a pack but I feel like I'm missing out on knowing how to use fresh ones! Should I be eating them often, or are they just a seasonal thing? If anyone has insights on what is fig and how it can fit into my diet, that would be awesome! Thanks!!
