Carambola fruit is very nutritious and contains approximately 36 calories per 100 grams. It can be eaten raw, or used in salads, or desserts. The fruits can also be used as an ingredient in curries, stews and puddings. Many people use the juice out of the carambola, and serve it just like lemonade. It is also being cultivated in certain areas, e.g., Florida, to be made into wine. The taste of this wine is sweet and has a honey like taste. This is a popular fruit because of the nutritive value associated with it. 100 grams of carambola fruit contains .38 grams of protein, .08 grams of fat, and approximately .85 grams of fiber.
