It Tastes So Good When It Hits Your Lips
I was at a bar on Saturday night when I met a guy and his sister that were vacationing from Manchester. Despite this I still struck up a conversation about life and other things. Right in front of the bar there was a stall that was selling some weird looking fruit (see below). My new friend Ed was practically begging me to try it, saying that it would change my life. I was skeptical considering that it looked like a giant spore. Of course what sealed the deal was his offer to buy and I can’t pass up free food, especially now that I’m going to be jobless in 10 days. So fruit was bought, skin was peeled off to reveal a soft egg looking thing underneath (see more pictures below). I did take the first bite and I can say that it was life changing. It was like a cross between a watermelon and a strawberry, but it was all natural. Oh so succulent also. The juice was running down my chin. The next thought I had was, why do we not have this in the States? Maybe the look is the problem?

That is one crazy looking fruit. But it sounds delicious. I would also like to know why some of these tasty food items have not made it to our side of the world, so please investigate further. Also, if they have dorian fruit there you should try it - people told me it tastes good but smells awful, and I'm not sure how those two go together.
ReplyDeleteThats kinda like the Noni fruit too. Smells like puke but is apparently delicious? You can get that in Hawaii.
ReplyDeleteThat fruit though does look crazy....I'm making a scrunched up skeptical face right now.
I'm pretty confident that if someone was buying, all three of us would have tried that fruit by now. It looks pretty crazy but I'd be into trying it. Go food.
ReplyDeleteI think this fruit looks like some kind of crazy animal, but one with a delicious egg inside. I would eat it for sure!!
