Has anyone trier any unusual fruit? I found the channel of a Yuppie who has traveled thr world eating all kinds of exotic tropic fruit or having it delivered.

https://youtube.com/channel/UChsbD6Clp-ZPqKwXJR3V7DQ

It makes me want to grow some unusual trees. I'm starting with a miracle berry tree. supposedly once eaten the berry causes sour things to taste sweet for thirty minutes. I am excited because it would allow me to basically give up on having sugar in soda. I could just drink lemonade without sugar, and eat bitter healthy food without suffering.

I'm also interested in growing Chico, a cinnamon tasting kind of apple. And there are a ton of sapote I'd like to try eating, and also snake fruit. The truth is most of the food and fruits we eat at super markets are only there because they're easy to produce or shelf long. The best kinds of fruit which are grown for personal taste by farmers are usually not mass producable.

That's why we as lefties need to take the time to plant more exotic fruit trees so those trees will always keep giving back. Then we can share the fruits without relying on supermarkets with the same damb flavors. We can literally eat more gourmet food once we fight back against big agriculture and capitalism.

There are for instance many kinds of bananas and mangoes with different flavors and textures but you'll never see them, when all the bananas at the market are literally from a tree that has been cloned millions of times. Check out his channel or google "exotic fruit" if you've never left your home and don't know what I'm talking about.

When I was in South America, I ate chirimoyas and it was the best fruit I ever had. Shame I can't find it where I am. And shouldn't exotic trees grow in tropical weather? Isn't it fucking with the environment to grow crops where they aren't supposed to grow? As someone who lives under a temperate climate I've come to terms with the idea of eating potatoes and beets until I die.

You actually need chilly weather to get some exotic trees to fruit, like the North American Paw Paw tree which supposedly tastes a bit like a mango. Other things that need cold weather to mature are cloud berries from Norway, Cherry trees and tulips.

Basically every part of the planet has weird varieties of fruit trees, which were usually eaten by the natives until we standardized the fruits at the grocery stores. You just have to pay attention.

Of course, if I lived in a cold place and had the space and money I'd definitely look into building a greenhouse or even an underground greenhouse. They've done really interesting experiments with growing plants in caves and mines because the temperatures stay pretty mellow undeground.

Jicama is pretty common in mexico as a snack. Outside Mexico, people seem to not know it. It's watery like a pair, but also firm like a potato. Usually served with lime juice and some chilli powder.

Tons of shit has honey cooked into it. If cooked honey was poisonous, every person who ate honey wheat bread or put honey in hot tea would be poisoned.

Honey CAN kill you, but only if you have a bee/honey allergy. That has nothing to do with cooking the honey.

In Cuba I had this battered and fried thing that tasted very nice: like fried mash potato. We all guessed it must've been a fried plantain of some kind, but who knows.

You can have contaminated honey. It's usually pasteurized for that reason when you buy it commercially.
