“I tried Lychee fruit. It has a wierd bumpy outer layer and is a little bigger than a cherry. You peel it and eat the squishy fruit inside. I little bitter almost like grapefruit. Found it at Safeway my the mushrooms and zuchini and such”

Karen L Bought these little fellas in M&S yesterday. Flower Sprouts - a cross between brussel sprouts & kale. Will let you know after dinner if that's actually what they taste like :-)
encouraged this.
How interesting. Never seen these before! : )
Karen L encouraged this.
Me neither until yesterday and I have to say that I will defnitely include them on my shopping list again !! They taste like brussel sprouts but with a much lighter texture - delish !!
Maria G encouraged this.
Sounds really yummy! I love Brussel sprouts! I have to ask the grocery store to get these! : )
Karen L encouraged this.
Janna C I am struggling with this one! There's not much I haven't eaten. I bought a pomegranate for the first time thinking I'd only ever had the juice. But once I cut it open I realised that I'd had it in a bean salad last week! Will hold off on pushing complete until I find a vege...
David L encouraged this.
Rita M Prickly pear fruit! :)
encouraged this.
I liked it fairly well. I think the key is that it's gotta be ripe enough. If it's not ripe enough it's more tangy and maybe even bitter. Was yours either of those?
It was bitter lol. Good advice. I'll try that
Rita M encouraged this.
Hope it works out for you! I liked it fairly well, so yeah. It is a little bit of an acquired taste, from what I hear, too, so it may be the combo there.
Mooshie B encouraged this.
Ryan B Tried a plantain. Not sure I get it,it wasn't super sweet like bananas. It wasn't great. I definitely prefer bananas.
encouraged this.
Karen F I just tried a pomelo!!
encouraged this.
What do they taste like? :)
sweeter but dryer than a grapefruit. Wicked thick skin to get through. I liked it.
Lisa B encouraged this.
it looked interesting, I ate lychee fruit that was really good as well.
Amanda M i tried samphire for the first time, so tasty and not sure how i've not come across it before, it and spinach are so ideal with everything but especially fish :)
Lisa (Mc Alister) P ok, I was in my local produce section and realized I have never tried a pomegranate. So, I got it and enjoyed it with 2 of my boys...but I DO still plan on going to our local Asian Market and getting something even more unfamiliar. :)
