I seriously doubt I'll get any responses on this one, but it has to be said.

The clementine orange has got to be the best dang fruit there is. It's one of the few really good features of wintertime, and you can buy 'em by the crate!

rincon, i forgot about star fruit. i eat it all the time in new zealand, its great but looks like it wouldnt be very good. i dont know what asian grapes are but i dont eat any grapes that are not organic as they are sprayed to death. as a matter of fact almost all fruit and veges i eat in are organic. when out i take my chances.

Waiwii (strawberry guava)
Strawberry papaya from Kauai
apple banana from Kahaluu, HI (it's my hometown's claim to fame in the islands).

Yes, they're quite good.

What are your feelings about kiwi fruits and kumquats? I like kiwis, but haven't had kumquats since childhood--in fact I had largely forgotten about them--but I now recall the tangy tartness and rich citrus burst as we crunched them down whole.

I see star fruits at the supermarket all the time, but have never mustered the courage. How do you even eat those things? Do you have to peel them, or can you just bite in like an apple?
