Some of the fruit I have discovered recently.

First, dragon fruit.

It had the texture of kiwi but without as much flavor. A little bit sweet but kind of bland.

Second, dragon eyes.

These have hard, thin shells and are a little smaller than a ping pong ball. The shell (skin? rind?) comes off pretty easily and inside the fruit is like a peeled grape in texture with a big pit in the center. It's taste is hard to describe except to say that I liked it and Lee spit his out.

  1. Both! I love the unknown fruit whole and cut up. And I'd pay Lee $5 if he finds and wats a fried insect on a stick ($10 if it's a scorpion).

  2. Lee says come visit and he'll buy you a scorpion. Actually, we haven't found any insects on a stick. Plenty of seafood on a stick - shrimp, squid. They kind of look like insects. We're both going (separately) to Thailand for conferences. Maybe we'll find some there.
