weird fruit
yo
i just bought a weird fruit thing at tesco, simply cos it looked weird and was 60p for something tiny, and thus likely to be quite an experience
anyway, it was called Mangosterry or something. i think. anyway, mangosterry doesnt seem to exist on the internet, so what the hell is in my kitchen?!?!?!?!?1/!??@!/!!??!?!
something that landed here inside a meteorite?
pictures?
Mungo Jerry

A BLOOD ORANGE
THOSE DECEPTIVE BASTARDS

I'm not sure
but you bought it at just the right time.
Because they're best to eat
IN THE SUMMERTIME!

"To open a mangosteen, the shell is usually broken apart by scoring it with a knife; one holds the fruit in both hands, prying gently with the thumbs until the rind cracks. It is then easy to pull the halves apart along the crack and remove the fruit, taking care with the purple, inky exocarp juice containing pigments that are an avid dye on skin and fabric."
Eat the purple part. My sis says they are lovely. We don't have anything this exotic in Liverpool sadly. I had a sharon fruit the other day though which was nice
correction
*Don't eat the purple part
too late

to the tune of 'Strangelight' by Fugazi
The sun's a strange fruit;
nothing grows right anymore,
scars on every stalk
