History in the Acai Bowl:

In the early 1970s, frozen acai pulp began traveling from the Amazon to the cities of northern Brazil. As time went on, Brazilian surfers and fitness enthusiasts started getting in on the acai bowl trend well into the 90s. It was in the 2000s that organic acai puree first flew to the US – the party was just getting started. Hawaii and Southern California were the first places where acai bowls truly found a home and the trend has spread across the country.
