Aronia/Chokeberries [161 ORAC units per gram]
There are 3 different fruit colors -- red, black and purple -- each a different species of the genus "Aronia". The black fruit has the most dense pigments, and hence antioxidants. The purple fruit is believed to have been originated as a red-black hybrid. The various fruits have an "astringent" or bitter taste, and are not readily edible raw. They are more commonly consumed as a juice, tea, jam, etc. They are consumed solely for their high antioxidant content including anthocyanins (1480 mg per 100 g) and proanthocyanidins (664 mg per 100 g).
