These little exotic fruits are quite delicious!! Very sweet and tropical tasting. The fruit is found mostly in asian countries but is spreading around more as the years go on. I recommend eating as much local produce as possible but once in a while its fun to try things! (this is another reason I must move to California!! Canadian winters have NO local fresh produce!!). Persimmons are rich in dietary fiber, vitamin c, potassium and beta-carotene. Here is how to eat it! You can eat the skin, just wash it well!
| The fruit should be a nice dark orange to be ripe. First you want to cut out the top stem area.  |  Then you can slice it into sections similar to an orange. You can eat it just like that or throw it in a smoothie! |
