Starting a new food category where I put up pictures of food or food related items that amuse me. I must warn you though, I am very very easily amused. =P
Moving on... Here's the first Fascinating Food post. The Ugli fruit which I spotted while grocery shopping in Tesco. Find out more about the Ugli fruit here.
"The skin of the ugli fruit is characteristically scarred, pot marked and puffy. A cross between a mandarin and a pomelo, the flesh is sweet and juicy. Eat like an orange or use to create refreshing sorbets and ice creams"I was toying with the idea of trying one, but I'm not really a big fan of pomelo so that kind of put me off it. Bad food blogger, I should be more adventurous. Maybe if I spot some again on my next shopping trip. Hee.

Apparently I'm easily amused too because the Ugli fruit made me giggle :)
It is kinda ugly. I'd try it for the heck of it. I like most fruit. Even the ugly ones ;)

louis: got nutrients oso must taste nice mar... if not eat other yummier fruit =D. Thanks for the wishes, I'll do my best =)
haha, yup, if not nice I also never eat one. My hometown is kedah. Always go to penang there. But long time didn't go back liao, busy study and make money.
Gosh, ugli sure is ugly... The description on Wikipedia sounds interesting, and I wouldn't mind a try; although I don't think they have it in Australia. I wouldn't mind you sending some to me (if customs doesn't confiscate them :P)
ben: hmm if i send it over how will you know if it didn't spoil along the way it'll still look ugly =P
i'd still name a horrible-looking fruit after my enemies. so there you go.
wan: go cross-breed your own ugli fruit then. A durian and something else maybe? then it'd be smelly too...
