An amazing color display at the Athens local farmer's market!
5. Mastic – Resin harvested from the Mastic tree found only in Chios, Greece. We had Mastic chewing gum and Mastic ice cream!

3. Octopus – Okay, maybe on the US coast but never in Kentucky!
2. Avocados – Delicious and very affordable!

1. Bananas – Never in a million years did I think it possible!
“The Mediterranean Diet” = The Perfect Diet
