Original origin of the kiwi:
The kiwi was mentioned in China as early as the 15th century. But it wasn't until the middle of the 19th century that the fruit became known in Europe. At first it was called "Chinese gooseberry" and was not particularly popular for a long time.
At the turn of the century, the first fruits were professionally grown in New Zealand. The name "kiwi" (today's national symbol and heraldic animal of New Zealand) is said to have been adopted by a New Zealand breeder from the Maori, who call a bird "kiwi-kiwi", at the suggestion of a dealer in San Francisco who wanted a catchy name for this delicious fruit have. The kiwi is a small, fast-running chicken, flightless and nocturnal, a snipe that lives in burrows. He is described as a happy and cuddly little brown shuttlecock that makes noises day and night. The fruit then began its triumphant march from New Zealand. Today kiwis are grown in many European countries. Portugal's climate is particularly suitable for growing this fruit.
