Earlier today we bought some fruits, red flesh dragon fruits and we thought we would some Korean grapes since we are cooking some korean style meals tonight.
These were bought from Fairprice at $5.50 (it's on sale so it's $5.20)
Sis put one in her mouth and immediately she 'pui' it out. LOL
These grapes taste a bit like 'wine' or 'gummy bears that has alcohol'. Acquired taste.
Our brother likes it though. For myself, it's ok, definitely different from the usual grapes. Not something I will crave for even though it's expensive. Maybe we are not wine drinkers, except once a month on a tiny glass on Sundays ;-)
They are quite firm outside. These are not seedless though. The skin comes off so so easily. All you need to do it to press one end, and the grapes will come out the other end so effortlessly. Dig out the seeds and enjoy.
You can eat the skin if you want vitamins that comes with it. Bro ate the skin. I did not. I did not like the fibrous skin texture.

Eating Strawberries in the office
At my workplace, there's this annual event by the Wellness Centre that gives all staff who register fruits. We had a box of grapes this year.
At the same time, vendors come in to sell fruits and vegetables as well. A colleague saw the big huge strawberries and bought two boxes. One to bring home, and one to treat his fellow colleagues.
He washed it and we were eating it in our meeting room table. Everyone gathered in the meeting room for an urgent meeting! haha.... We had strawberries and also other stuff from other colleagues. A quick 20 minute meeting. LOL...
The strawberries are huge and sweet too. (except for one which i ate which was sour. haha)
Compare the fruit with my fingers. It's big right?
If you happen to chance on them, it's Driscoll's Long Stem strawberries.
The vendor that provided us the fruits were Sun Moon. So I guess you can find it in their shops perhaps.
Thanks "Wire" for those delicious strawberries.

Hami Melon, Mangoes and Hawthorn
Last Sunday, we had a sumptuous dinner at our aunt's place. There was some relatives that was visiting, so it was a big dinner.
After dinner we had lots of fruits. We had grapes that was very sweet.
We also had this big Hami Melon. Yup, I was the one that was cutting it.
Not sure how you cut it, but it was so huge, so I cut them this way.
Because aunt knows that one of her niece loves mangoes, so there was lots of mangoes!
Do you like to eat the seed portion? I do!
And this... I forgot what it is.. But it tasted good.
I think it's what Haw Flakes are made of. So, these should be Hawthorn.
We all love fruits, do you?

Fruits and more Fruits
Do you store fruits at home? I do... I just stocked up these fruits on Monday nite.
Last week's fruits were Summerwhite Nectarines and Naval Oranges.
This week's fruits, I have gone mad... I bought more Nectarines. I bought Kiwis too, as I think the stock is fresh and they are those huge ones too. Also saw some reddish on one side and green on another Forelle Pears. Also got some Tulane Giant Plum.

Hey, did you all know that when you don't ask for plastic bags and carry the stuff in your bag, Fairprice rewards you with a BYOB 10 cents off your price.
I had a $10 voucher that I got from the Health Points as work, so with a 10 cent rebate, all the fruits I bought cost me only 5 cents! haha...
Do you like to eat fruits? When I got home, I ate 3 plums, 1 pear and 1 nectarine. oh so yummy....
