Persimmon.

It’s one of those seasons for fruits. Persimmon. It’s also one of the fruits that I enjoy around this time. It’s like how I introduced longan in one of my earlier blogs how they were in the season. Same for persimmons, they’re really sweet around this time of year. I went to Asian grocery stores and they’re stocked on a lot of those fruit. Many consumers were piled on top of each other trying to get hold of the fruit and pick from the big pile of persimmons. I think majority of the Asians know what kind of fruit this is and fairly enjoy it the most. Like the longan situation when I was at the grocery store, many foreigners asking and pointing “what is that?” Luckily, they provided samples for the foreign consumers and looking at their facial expressions, I think they enjoyed it and wanted to try some more. Next thing you know is that they were with the Asian consumers piled on top to get some of those fruits.

The texture of this fruit is varied. Many people like it differently. I tried different kinds of it. Sometime they can be crunchy and soft, but of course the sweetness of it is the same. I really enjoy eating this fruit sometimes and I think it’s only this around of time that I can consume it. They’re not like apples or oranges where you can it in all season. It’s only available around this season. Grab some and try it out yourself. The sweetness if unbelievable and you’re going to love it. :)
