After only having tasted passion fruit candies, the real thing was amazing

Really like carambola when I was young and throughout my teens. It becomes this pretentious hipster thing to love around here and I slowly began to hate it.

>>9177432
Have bought these many times in the past. Very good!

>>9179141
What does it taste like?

>>9179161

It's a bit waxy, texture is almost like starburst candy, but the flavor is light and it's quite tasty

Any love for dates? Probably my favourites

Date lover here. I think I've tried over 40 different types of dates by this point in my life. Good stuff.

Ataulfo AKA honey mangoes.

If you've only ever had Haden mangoes you should try to find honey mangoes instead. They're 100x better.

Those aren'the GMO and they're organic. Makes a great fruit salad with watermelon

>>9179533
Had that, prefer Haden.

>>9179274
Damn lychees are the fruit of the Gods.

>>9179576
Why? Every Haden mango I ever had was so fibrous that I ended up with fibers stuck in my teeth, and they were always strangely acidic even when soft and ripe. It felt like I was eating a mild lemon, whereas honey mangoes are like... honey in fruit form. I guess I could see how someone prefers Haden mangoes thinking about it that way, though.

whoever does this deserves death

>>9179686
You had some bad/unripe/premature mangoes?

>>9179141
I buy 10 of these whenever I find them and eat them all before I get home

>>9179745
Possibly, but I still had the same issues when getting ripe mangoes picked from a friend's tree. Might just be my preference.

Worst mangoes are turpentine mangoes though, got them from a random neighbor once and when I tried to eat one I wondered if someone spilled gasoline on them.

You won't regret it :^)

What are your favorite variants?

>>9177432
It says "non gmo" on the package, you illiterate mongoloid.
