Why?
In terms of macros, kiwi has more fiber, carbs, and protein, making it the winner in this category.
In the category of vitamins, kiwi has more of vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, B7, B9, C, E, K, and choline, while starfruit has more of vitamins B3 and B5; an easy 10:2 win for kiwi.
Looking at minerals, kiwi has more calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc, while starfruit has more selenium. Thus, a 7:1 win for kiwi this time.
