- Peppers: Add five health and a 20 percent increase in movement speed. When you eat a Pepper, you'll hear a whistle sound to let you know the buff is in effect.
- Coconuts: Grants five points of effective health. If your health is already full, your shields will start to recover.
- Bananas: These function just like Apples in other parts of the map. Eat Bananas to get five health.
Where to find Peppers, Coconuts and Bananas in Fortnite
In order to best locate each of these items, one must understand how the Fortnite Season 8 map divides into biomes. To find Peppers, Coconuts and Bananas, you need to know the difference between the Tropical and Desert biomes.
...
- Tropical Biome: This essentially includes anything around the Volcano on the Battle Royale map. Look for the dark green shading in the upper-right corner for places like Risky Reels, Lazy Lagoon and Sunny Steps.
- The Desert Biome has sand and is in the bottom-right corner. It's entirely made up of Paradise Palms.
With that in mind, here's where you can locate each of these new items.
Peppers: In the Desert Biome only. They're often found on the ground on the green grassy areas towards the center of Paradise Palms.
...
Coconuts: These are found in the Tropical and Desert Biomes. Just hit palm trees with your Pickaxe, and a Coconut will appear more often than not.
...
Bananas: These are exclusive to the Tropical Biome. Search around the short trees with big leaves and you should see plenty of Bananas on the ground.
...
That's all you need to know about how Peppers, Coconuts and Bananas work in Fortnite.
Fortnite is available on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC and mobile.
