Today's Foreign Fruit Experience
Brought to you from: Columbia!
(I know, we are in Asia,
and we are getting to try fruit
we have NEVER seen before
from Columbia, strange.)
The fruit: Yellow Pitahaya
Apparently, this fruit is really the fruit of a cactus in Columbia.
We had no clue that it was originally from a cactus.
Fortunately, the spikes had been removed.
The kids all cast their votes as to what it looked like inside:
Krystin: Orange
Logan: White
Kayla: whitish-yellow
(I personally thought it would be like a pineapple.)
We were shocked when it looked very similar to a DRAGON FRUIT inside!
Everyone gave it a try.
Krystin and Logan: Said tasted like a Lychee (but with seeds)
Kayla: sweeter dragon fruit, but lychee like
Todd and I tried it too.
I really liked it.
Delish! Sweet, juicy, seeds were fun and crunchy.
Todd was less thrilled about the seeds.
All in all - I think Yellow Pitahaya was a hit!
I would definitely get it again.
That is if we ever see it again!
Addendum: I just realized the kids all used 'foreign fruit' to describe this fruits flavor. Ha!
