I love eating these!
For the fruit of a succulent cacti, these things are amazing. Dragonfruit AKA Pitaya are some of the most interesting wild foods I've encountered. Their colors vary quite a bit, and their flavor is amazing. The ones I found recently at a discount grocery store were hot pink with a white inside. Others are hot pink on the inside! I was prepping some food for a sabbath gathering recently and decided that mixing some pitatya, pineapple, and grapes sounded like a great idea. After enjoying the peculiar fruit salad, I can testify that it was indeed a great idea.
Have you ever eaten dragonfruit? Have you ever grown any of your own? If not, would you try eating some if you had the opportunity? Let us know below, and enjoy the photos!
