Guest guest Posted January 27, 2007 Report Share Posted January 27, 2007 http://www.tonytantillo.com/fruits/persimmons.html Try the Japanese Fuyu persimmon, it's more of a crunchy texture and it won't bite your tongue and pucker your mouth. I eat both types though. Alvii , " Erin " <truepatriot wrote: > > I've yet to try a persimmon.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2007 Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 I've been puzzling over this, thinking I've never seen any persimmons for sale over here. Further investigation shows that Fuyu persimmons are known as sharon fruit in Britain. Maybe I'll be brave enough to try one now.
