How do you make daily life more interesting if you’re Hannah Hall? You go to the supermarket–to the exotic fruit section.
By Fruit Connoisseur Hannah Hall
Fruit at the average supermarket is just bleh. We’ve got the apples, the oranges, the lemons, the whatever! They are all just regular. To make daily life more interesting, I recommend browsing (and maybe shopping) for some exotic fruit. Here, I have a list of beautiful exotic fruits in rainbow order.
Red//Rambutan
The root word of this fruit means “hair.” The fruit is said to have a lychee-like flavor. When you take a look at this fruit it looks like a sea urchin with a cherry kool-aid dye job. This fruit is native to Indonesia and other tropical regions in Southeast Asia.
Orange//Kiwano
This fruit looks like a small bright orange horned melon. This fruit is said to have a flavor similar to cucumber and banana together. The kiwano is native to Southern and Central Africa.
Yellow//Buddha’s Hand
This fruit is a part of the citrus family. But, unlike the lemon and limes, there is no pulp! Usually, this fruit is used for flavor, not to eat. This fruit is native to China.
Green//Cucamelon
Simply, this is just a teensy-weensy mini melon. The flavor is similar to a watermelon, but more on the cucumber side. It’s also sour. This fruit is native to Central America and Mexico.
Blue//Blue Java Banana
Yes, you read that right–a blue banana. This banana is said to have the texture and flavor of vanilla ice cream. This fruit is native to Northern Australia. It would probably be good to make that frozen banana vegan ice cream with, so if you’re into that, get you some of these.
Purple//Pluot
This is a combination between a plum and an apricot. I think you can imagine the flavor with the details I have just said. These are grown in California. Not very exotic, but, surprisingly, there are not a lot of purple fruits.
