I was searching the web trying to figure out what kind of fruit my favorite fruit vendor so generously gave me at the farmers market the other day and found a couple of interesting sites about exotic fruits. I thought you might like to check them out. Some I'm familiar with and others are new to me.

This link gives a little more detail about the fruit, it's flavor and nutritional content.

P.S. The fruit he gave me was passion fruit. It's so different than anything I've ever tried and the more I eat, the more I like them. It looks pretty bad inside and out but the flavor is like a sweet, tart, pink grapefruit. It's a little slimy and the seeds are light and crunchy. It's very different, but a good different.
It's so fun to explore new foods, especially when they're free! I never would have tried it, had he not given them to me.
