Why is it hard to find and buy acai berry at the local grocery store?
Acai berry is from acai palm, which is native to the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil. Unfortunately, the fruit is highly perishable and is spoiling quickly, about just a few hours after it is harvested. This setback, for obvious reasons, makes shipping of the fruit to greater distances almost impossible. However, because of the persistence of many researchers, more businesses have developed technologies and techniques to process newly harvested acai berry more quickly. After processing techniques, the fruit is then shipped to the United States and to other countries, where demand exists.
