Bitter fruits are usually eaten by animals because they contain tannins which give them a bitter taste. Tannins supposedly help protect the fruit from being eaten. Bitter fruits also have a high amount of vitamin C, so animals will eat them to get their dose of vitamins!
Bitter fruits include:
Blackberries
Elderberries
Gooseberries
Tamarinds
Cherries (especially sour cherry)
The bitter taste of many fruits is due to their tannins, which are found in the skin, seeds and core. Some fruits, such as pomegranates, have a small amount of tannin in the flesh of the fruit but have much more concentrated amounts in their seeds. The bitterness from these fruits can be reduced by removing the seeds before eating them.
In some cases, though, you may want to leave the seeds in your food for added texture or flavor. For example, if you’re making jam or jelly from a berry that has a high tannin content (like blackberries), it’s best to leave the seeds in because they’ll help thicken the jam and give it a more interesting texture when it comes out of the jar or off a spoon.
