On very rare occasions an odd looking item turns up in the supermarket Fruit and Vege section.

Large red item with fleshy yellow leaf-like appendages.

Turns out it's a Dragonfruit. I looked up what it was and how to eat it then laid down $8 to buy one! You eat it raw and they say it tastes like a cross between a pear and kiwifruit.

A bit bland really.

Dragonfruit cut open. Inside is white flesh with black dots.
