Have you ever heard of a dragon fruit? Also known as Pitaya? I found out about them about 4 years ago and have always wanted one. Well finally they're having them at a Central Market in Dallas so I'm going to go over there and get some tomorrow! WOOOO.
People say they taste like kiwis and mango and melon. That it has a consistency of a watermelon. they are originally from Mexico and Central America. Look them up and go see if you can find one! They will probably be in a local asia market. :)

Yeah, there are like, 3 different flesh colors right? Like a magenta, red and white.
I can't wait to go try one this morning. I have strep throat right now so I'm going to go drink some soup and then hopefully my mom will take me lol.

Honestly don't think the red ones are any tastier, but they stain like beetroot so they are much messier.

They are delicious. They remind me of Kiwi in taste but more melon like though. They have a red flesh variety as well as the white one shown.

Never heard of it, but it certainly looks interesting!
