Meet Lychee


I work at a grocery store and I had been seeing this strange fruit coming through my line called Lychees. I knew I had to try it. I remember when I was first introduced to Kiwi I wouldn't touch it because it looked so weird it couldn't possibly taste good. When I finally tried it I was so mad at myself for not trying it before. I was really missing out. So I finally picked up a few of these little guys and was excited for us all to try them. I was hoping they might be a lot like strawberries! After figuring out how to crack the shell and trying them I must say I am not a big fan. Nothing like Strawberries! They are nice and sweet but the texture is too much for me to handle. A little "boingy" if you know what I mean (My mom will understand). Not what I expect when I eat fruit. It was fun trying something new!

That's funny! Lychees are huge in Asian culture. They're really good with fried bananas :)
