Few years ago I found medlars (German: Mispel) in my local grocery store. Had never seen them before. They look somewhat like apricots but taste like a mix of other fruits. Really tasty for a not so popular fruit. It’s cool to make such a discovery. :)
The snozzberries taste like snozzberries.
Not affiliated with them, but if anyone has money to throw at interesting fruit, I got a box of assorted fruit from the Miami Fruit Company for Christmas and it was pretty cool to have weird fruits to munch on for a few days.
There may be other companies doing the same thing maybe with a better assortment or cheaper, but that’s the one I know off the top of my head.
I totally read this as “NTFS” and thought this was going to be a joke about shitty file systems.
Every apple tree that’s not grafted is like a new fruit tree
I recommend checking out Weird Explorer if you’re interested in learning about new and weird fruits.
So what are they? My best guesses clockwise from the top:
- Cherry???
- Yangmei/Chinese bayberry
- Apple? But with pink flesh for some reason
- peach? But color is strange
- Some type of persimmon but they’re not normally that blue color, so it may be a less common Diospyros species.
Persimmon can be blue, but that picture is edited and over-saturated. They’re darker and have a powder coat, like blueberries. Wouldn’t be surprised if the apple picture was also edited, but they can have pink flesh.
I’ve never seen a blue Japanese persimmon but maybe it varies due to variety.
Sweet cherry, kaki, mulberry, peach(?) and apple(??)
Oops I meant clockwise.
What is that big blueberry?
Looks like a blue persimmon of some sort. Never seen one either.
Looks like a big blueberry to me
I had no idea persimmons came in blue, neat!
Is that so?
