“Dua Gan”…




…Aka Korean Yellow Melon.* Sized like a Hawaii Papaya, smell like a pear, taste like honeydew but warrant the crunchy texture of sun melon.
 
 
Worth a try especially if you are a melon junkie!

Fruit Porn...



Oranges with teats that look like a crossbreed between lemon and orange. In fact, they are called ‘Minneola Tangelo’ which is produced by Sunkist…
 
Minneola Tangelos are easily identified by the knob-like formation at the stem end. This fruit tends to grow large in size and will display a deep red-orange exterior color. They have a delicious tart-sweet flavor. Minneolas have a smooth to slightly pebbled texture, peel very easily, and have few if any seeds. Minneola Tangelos are available from mid Dec through April.” *
 
The intrinsic tartness puckers my lips and yet the beguiling zesty scent perks me up instantly!
