Kiwano Horned Melons and Passion Fruit are both slimy green on the inside with seeds. The Kiwano has a flavor or cucumber mixed with kiwi. The Passion Fruit is best enjoyed when super wrinkly and shriveled. The inside is sweet-tart and musky.. and tastes somewhat like guava.


All kinds of good things here! From the top left clockwise are Yucca root, Tamarind pods, Horseradish root, Mung bean sprouts, Tumeric root, Rambutan, and Galangal root. I often wander into produce and eat the tamarind like candy. The pods are filled with seeds and an edible paste that is extremely tart and sweet. I also buy the tumeric often and use it in soups, stews and tea.

Dragon Fruit is so beautiful! Its expensive, but so much fun to eat. The flavor is like a cross between kiwi and pear.. and the inside is whitish pink with lots of tiny black seeds that look like poppy seeds. Medlar apples are pretty uncommon these days, they are usually cooked though you can eat them raw. They are soft on the inside with a winey cinnamony depth of flavor. They're great for preserves and chutneys.
