This morning, Amy and I went down to Chinatown to load up on some our favourite summer exotic fruit. I’m talking young coconuts, mangos, papayas, mangosteen, pomegranate, and a few new ones too like dragon fruit.
(The picture above shows about 1/2 of what we got)
We were also going to grab a fresh durian but when the cashier rang it through it came out to $38! That’s a bit too much for the most foul-smelling fruit on the planet, if you ask me!
Personally, when the weather gets warm, all I want to eat are exotic, water-rich fruit (and some vegetables). Maybe it gives me a nostalgic feel like being in Mexico. Whatever the reason, I look forward to cracking open some young coconuts sipping on their nature’s most amazing juice/water and scooping away the nutrient-rich flesh. Mmmmm….good times.
=> Do you have any favourite summer-time fruit? Let me know in the comments.
Mangos – definitely mangos! They remind me of Summer which is my favourite Season!
