Asparagus, raw

Long crisp stem with a fragile feathery tip. Usually green in colour.

Folate and some proximates, vitamins and minerals were derived from a composite of 10 samples of asparagus purchased from a mixture of 10 Melbourne supermarkets and markets in 1997 (1997/98 Folate Project). Cholesterol and retinol were imputed.
