SEEDLESS LIME
Seedless lime is a citrus fruit species of hybrid origin, best known for its distinctive absence of seed and longer shelf life. When ripe, seedless lime has bright green skin. The yellow-green pulp is juicy and has a refreshingly sour taste. Not only the flavor of the lime is stronger and more tart than lemon, but also lacks the characteristic bitterness, unlike the key lime variety. Nearly all parts of the fruit have a very specific refreshing aroma

How to eat
Lime provides juice or peels that are added to food dishes, sweet or savory, to provide a tart taste or enhance the flavor as an ingredient, as well as a decoration for dish presentation. Limes are also used in a dried form to season a variety of food dishes, which is a common way to use lime in many Asian country cuisines
Health benefit
Seedless lime is an extremely powerful source of vitamins, especially containing high levels of vitamin C, antioxidants and other nutrients. Therefore, lime can help boost the body's immunity, reduce heart disease risk factors, prevent kidney stones, aid in iron absorption, and promote healthy skin.
Besides vitamin C, lime is also a source of antioxidants that boost the immune system by protecting cells against free radical damage. Citrus fruits like lime is high in citric acid, which can prevent kidney stones by increasing citrate levels and removing stone-forming minerals in the urine. One study found that people who ate a lot of citrus fruits had a significantly lower risk of kidney stones. Although lime only contains a small amount of iron, vitamin C and citric acid in the fruit can increase iron absorption from other foods, which means they can prevent anemia.
