Fruity

Found a new fruit in the grocery store.  I paired it with some blueberries.

It is golden kiwi, specifically California Golden Kiwi.  Far Guy thought the flavor was more intense.  I thought it was about the same.  The fruits seem a bit smaller than regular kiwi.

This is a fruit we had in Hawaii.

These are half peeled.  The white part is the part you eat, there is a small brown seed inside the white part which you should not eat.  This is a Rambutan and it is very rich in Vitamin C.  It has the texture of a grape and kinda tastes like a tangy grape.  Needless to say our grocery store does not have them.

  5. The Rambutan is intriguing. I've seen the golden kiwi in the store but haven't tried them. In January I tried a fruit in Antiqua that the locals called a sugar apple. It was tasty, but very weird looking.

  6. Hawaii does have some interesting and unique fruit. Unfortunately, they seldom appear in the produce aisle.

  7. I see you have some Golden Wheat dishes. Are these the old ones or something new?

  8. I like kiwi and it's fairly inexpensive. The grands eat them a lot. I have never seen a fruit like the other one...very interesting! Last summer I paid a hefty price for some grapes that taste like cotton candy for the grands and indeed they did! they were delicious. I don't know about these things normally but they inform me when we talk. LOL!

  11. That Rambutan looks delicious. I'm wondering if it tastes at all like Lychee.

  16. For a brief period there were "star fruits" at the local market -- I liked them -- but they vanished as quickly as they appeared.

  17. I do like kiwi. The other looks a little too fuzzy for me.
