Who is "they"?

>>15418545
The voices in his head

>>15418536
Because it’s Japanese and anything Japanese is in nowadays

its in season

>>15418545
the international Nips

Nobody is shilling persimmons. They’ve moved on to Skyline Chili.

>>15418536
Very short season.

>>15418586
unless you have them tree ripened they are shit

>>15418536
My grandma used to shill them.

>>15418536
>everyone spergs out over how great persimmons are
>try one
>fuzzymouth.tiff
what's the appeal?

>>15418536
It delicious, especially when dried.
Chewy and incredibly sweet, what dont you like about it?

>>15418695
Never had one, just wondering why everyone’s selling them en masse all the sudden.

They’re in season dum dum. I want to plant a fuyu persimmon

>>15418695
texture of a tomato (worst part about tomatoes) and a sickeningly sweet version of raw tomato flavor

Love em. No idea what you ninnies whining about. I could an entire bowl by myself

>>15418545
Some kind of minority

Persimmons are cum flavored LOL

>>15419257
Impossible. My ex gf always said that hollandaise sauce tastes like cum.
I don’t believe hollandaise is made with persimmons.

>>15418536
>mom makes persimmon cookies around holiday season every year
My favorite

>>15418550
>why don't you buy some persimmons?... just get a few persimmons, we're already at the store... look, they're ripe and all... they're in season, you know...
GET OUT OF MY HEAD

>>15418536
Persimmons are pretty fucking tasty.
So is dragonfruit.

Persimmons are good but they're an obnoxious amount of effort to harvest compared to almost literally every other fruit.
>>15418586
They're all gone here. Trees lost their leaves early December and the last of the straggler fruit was gone 3 weeks ago. Just bare trees now.

I've noticed they've been shilling this lately too...I thought they were just giant ass tomatoes upon first glance. Never in my 22 years of living have I seen this thing..... It even feels kind of synthetic desu I wouldn't trust or touch it

>>15419745
>my 22 years.

>>15419261
your ex gf is a moron, or you have VERY weird cum

Fuck I love persimmons so much
Anyone tried growing it before?
How much space do you need and is it worth it?

>>15418689
That variety needs to be ripened to the point of being super mushy in order to lose the tannins that cause that. Other varities can be eaten out of hand harder and not have that effect.

>>15419745
>22 years
>already fucking schizo about big agri shilling a cooking forum
Hoo, boy, kiddo...

>>15420036
I had a professor who had a shit fucking ton. Like so many that he and his elderly wife would prepare large boxes to bring to class and hand them out, 2-3 for everyone. I’m pretty sure if you have a good tree, it’s sort of like growing oranges, except they only grow in late fall. I’m sure you can google for more details but I don’t think it’s very difficult, but growing a tree from a seed or sapling is gonna take you a pretty fuckin long while to see results.

Coffeecake persimmon is the tastiest fruit on the planet

>>15420036
You don't need fuck all of space, they just drop from the tree in like a 10-20 ft radius. You can only eat them after the first freeze but by that time they're so small and concentrated it's like buying frozen oj. Old school homies scour persimminion trees so their wives can make persimmion bread and jam and shit

>>15418545
they corp™

same people who are holding the cure to cancer

absolutely vile stuff

>>15420188
put it in the freezer for a day

>>15420036
Grow American Persimmons, they're a native plant and even better than the jap shit.

>>15418545
The persimmans

They had the flat dried ones at my local Asian grocery store and they're pretty good. I like how the inner flesh becomes a homogenous sweet paste.

Honestly persimmons, the big ones at least, are a meme fruit. Takes weeks to "ripen" (fancy word for getting mushy as rotten food) and then you eat them with a spoon like some kind of autist, plus the texture is way too slimy

>>15422764
>they're a native plant
Only on the east coast.

>>15423406
If you don’t have the space or attention span to set some persimmons aside somewhere and wait for them to ripen, and if you don’t have the brain power to mix them with yogurt and granola if you don’t like the texture, then just go fuck yourself retard.

So the old couple in persona 3 won’t kill themselves

>>15418545
the cookie cutters like BRAD and McCuck!

>>15419714
Audible kek

>>15418552
I live in the Midwest and have them

>>15423005

>>15418536
Because they're expensive imports.

>>15418536
It’s almost like they’re in season and have a decent profit margin for stores.

>>15419745
>I’m 22 and know about the world
Zoomers were a mistake. Off yourself.

>>15418876
Huh? they taste like pear..

>>15418536
Why does persimmons taste like cum?

I make a simple persimmon compote and put it over pancakes.

>>15418536
Persimmons and Gooseberries taste really good so idk why you're mad about it

>>15418536
Dang I haven't eaten those since I was a kid
So soft and sweet at least the greek variety ? Don't even know if they are different varieties

>>15418536
because no one would eat them otherwise

>>15418545
The Jews!

>>15418703
Because it's fall/early winter you retard, that's the fruit's season

(they aren't grown in greenhouses really so they're only around for their actual season)
