tastes like freezer burned ice cubes

No it doesn't. It tastes like nothing.

>>16065155
This. It's a muted taste. As bland as the rind is exciting.

>>16065155
>>16065150
You guys must have not had a ripe one. Tasted really sweet and creamy when I had mine. Not overly sweet though, a nice mild sweet

>>16065162
yeah these ones are better as far as weird looking fruit go

>>16065166
I had a weeb stepmom as a kid that would get these a lot. They’re so good, haven’t had any in years unfortunately

This isn't crazy related, but in the best love story ever told the devil Helvi refers to her adorable husband's lips/chastity as a juicy fruit a few times and it's so fucking hot and cute.
Sorry for interrupting. I just felt like fruit fans should know.

>>16065176
the seed is a pain in the butt and the flesh barely even exists. not worth it.

>>16065176
lad where do you live?I'm a filthy balkan slav (Bulgaria) and these can be found in most supers at decent prices.Still i buy em only once in a while

>>16065329
Bulgaria JE SRBIJA

>>16065140
When theyre ripe and cold, theres nothing better. Its like ice cream.

>>16065332
cmon now anon everyone knows that the world belong to ALBANIA

it tastes like nothing

>>16065290
how? it's just one pit and the flesh comes off cleanly

>>16065329
mogged

>>16065140
>>16065162
>tfw have both of these where my parents live so when I go there I can eat it
Pitaya is good if you don't buy the chinese waterfilled ones, and letchis are the same, shit ones have no flesh or are filled with water.

>>16065140
Seasonal fruit. Difficult pest control
Magenta>white though

>>16065140
its fine, like a very mild kiwi

the purple one is sweeter but also 3x more expensive

>>16065290
>>16068462
the trick is to buy rambutans or longans instead of litchi. Its not as overly memed and in demand. Vs the litchi it is sweeter but less floral.

>>16068515
>rambutans
Never had those. Longanis are good too, but have a completely different taste

ahem

Don't you have to eat it at the asian whorehouse country that it grows from to get a real taste? Otherwise it's bland from extensive preserving and sitting in a cargo container for several weeks

>>16068526
Is that my boy mangosteen? That shit rules, way better than lychee imo

>>16068580
Yeah, it is. Lychee is good shit, but it can get almost sickly sweet. Mangosteen is sweet, too, but has enough tartness to keep it from getting overwhelming. Just wish they weren't so expensive over here.

>>16068526
>stains your shirt irreversibly

>>16065140
Dragon fruit doesn’t taste like anything

>>16065180
Whatever the love version of horny is

>>16068613
shut up idiot

>>16065140
My father has a few of these trees, I absolutely vacuum the trees/ground when it’s in season (winter). You have to eat them when they’re very soft and close to being rotten (i.e ‘bletted’) or else they’re shit.

>>16069393
I forgot to mention that they’re called Medlar.

>>16069393
that aint no damn dragonfruit

I freaking love dragonfruit but yea the import prices make it so expensive

>>16068526
based choice, second only to snakefruit

>>16065140
>why is it so expensive
>it tastes so good
That's the answer, retard. High demand results in high price. If it tasted like shit it wouldn't be expensive.

>>16069530
You talk a lot of shit for somebody only half right

>>16069563
That's how you get ahead in life.

>>16065140
was like biting into a soggy piece of styrofoam desu

I almost bought one of these. It was on "sale" for some high amount for one fruit. I said "fuck it" and decided to spend the same amount of money on traditional american fruits. FUCK spending a lot of money on something I've never had.

>>16065140
>IT TASTES SOOOOO GOOD
it really doesn't

>>16065329
go back to /v/ you creep

>>16065162
these things taste like a mouthful of perfume

In Vietnam one of the resorts used to bring a plate of fruit to my room everyday with some kind of huge grapes and these little bananas. I've never had a better banana in my life, can't even look at the regular ones now, they taste like peeled sadness.

>>16070714
probably ate an overripe one
it shouldn't be soggy

>>16065140
I'm making some dragon fruit mead currently. I can get them pretty cheap at my Chinese market

>>16071033
>Baby banana

It's a variety likely Lady Finger Var.

>>16071033
lol of course the tiny bananas are asian

>>16069398
Oh daddi
These make a stunning jam or garnish for goose.

Had a couple in Mexico a few years back, you could get like a pound for 35 cents. They were pretty good.

>lychees, rambutans, dragonfruit
It's almost as if you people don't even like flavor. Fresh plums is where it's at. Fresh peaches are also a good contender (miss me with that canned shit)

>>16069393
on par with quinces, absolutely inedible uncooked and not mixed with something else (typically apples)

>>16072883
Actually as disgusting as it smells

>>16066013
it means it's not ripe, it should taste sweet

>>16065140
Dragonfruit is expensive to grow and ship from the tropics.

>>16065155
Literally this. It also makes my poo spotted with seeds, which scares me.

>>16068526
Fuck can't find these anywhere in Ontario Canada..

>>16073823
literally at every t&t

>>16068505
these are great i used to buy them for $1 each when i lived in hawaii

>>16065140
you can grow your own plants from the seed inside bro

>>16069530
big macs also taste good but they're not expensive

>>16072913

I Summoned The Devil To Grant Me a Wish But I Married Her Instead Since She Was Adorable.
It is a masterpiece.
It's based on a web novel which is being translated as well, and she again refers to her husband's chastity as fruit.

>>16074456
You are on par with OP, absolutely a faggot and cannot stop sucking cocks
