Star Fruit

It's my new favorite thing which is good, because it's SUPER cheap.  Like 1.99EC per pound cheap.

It has many names, five finger fruit, carambola, and star fruit are just a few.


It's in the citrus fruit family and is extremely juicy.

If you like sour/sweet candy, then you will love star fruit because I think it tastes like a sour patch kid. 

At only 30 calories per fruit, you can afford to sprinkle a bit of sugar on it to make it a sweet dessert.

And in my opinion, it's one of the prettiest looking fruits once it's cut up.



Can you OD on starfruit?  Just wondering. :)

  2. They are much more sour here than they are if you buy them in the grocery store back in the states! And...stop buying them! Come to my house. I have a tree and it produces a LOT of starfruit!!! :)
