Recently I bought on the market very sweet and juicy mandarins with green skin, after couple of days in the house they started turning orange and yellow.... now I know why :) By the way, great blog, I got here through Bren's website.

They were called kintaro(?) at our farmers market. Tasted like a mix of orange and pomelo, very juicy and delicious I think I’ve had them before. They were called kintaro(?) at our farmers market.

They look like massive limes. Can't think of anything I would consider weird, that I've eaten in my travels. Although, in Northern Ireland where my boyfriend comes from, they have something deep fried called "vegetable roll", that doesn't contain any vegetables in it! How's that for weird! :P I love the colour. They look like massive limes. Can’t think of anything I would consider weird, that I’ve eaten in my travels.

Thanks for sharing; I had no idea there were green oranges or why oranges are orange. Your blog is fantastic, by the way. :) How fascinating!

Actually that is the pinyin pronounciation. It's actually frog oviduct. (Took me a while to figure that one out since Google hasn't a clue what hardsmar was). I think it's so weird bc of the color and texture. It was a white, semi-opaque helical soft squishy thing that I couldn't understand (until I found out what it was). I absolutely love your blog and your pictures, and after backtracking through it, totally inspired by your garden before I realized that I have a black thumb and pretty much any plant that I've come into contact with has died... even "impossible to kill plants" such as the money tree or cacti... So, I'll save my love of plants for food and ogling your pictures. :D By far… hardsmar served in a light soup in a steamed papaya… Actually that is the pinyin pronounciation.

They're so amazingly sweet! My mom used to juice them up in Indonesia, and the first time I had a sip, I thought she'd added some sugar to it! Hmmh, I'm not sure what the weirdest thing I've eaten was... I grew up eating boiled snails on the side streets of Jakarta and roasted pigeon brains. Had snake soup when I was nine, and thought it tasted almost exactly like chicken soup. Haha! Oh, I think the weirdest thing for me was treacle pudding! It was so weird!!! I had it about a month ago in a pub, and thought it was just overwhelmingly sweet and the texture was kinda... weird. Hmmh. Mmm I love those green oranges. They’re so amazingly sweet!
