We found some pomelo at walmart last week and I grabbed a couple since I miss this fruit. It cost 2.65 each but it's worth the try. It wasn't the taste that I I was expecting though.
My maternal grandparents used to have pomelo and jack fruit trees in their yard and we are always eating ripe ones whenever we were visiting but when they died, the trees died too.
Those pomelo look as if they have a lot of pith! It is a fruit I love but those do not look the best :( Diane
ReplyDeletehaguy san kaya galing yan Rose...pero at least may pomelo kahit hindi kasing sarap dito sa atin..hehe
ReplyDeleteAng pinakamasarap na pomela or suha ay yung galing sa Dizon's Farms sa Davao. Sulit sa tamis ang bayad mo dito. Sa States ay kahawig nang grapefruit and pomelo although medyo maasim ang lasa nito. Sa akin, wala na yatang tatalo sa mga prutas sa Pinas gaya nang suha, langka, guyabano, atis, mangga, lansones, bayabas, kaymito, santol at iba pa. Thanks for the post. God bless you all always.

That's interesting how the trees died after your grandparents passed away. I like to think they had a great connection with them.
