I feel like if you have grapefruit as a fruit that does not live up to its name then grape should be on the other list.
Star fruit = shaped like stars Durian = "duri" means spike
Have they even seen a dragonfruit? Shit looks and tastes like a delicious dragon
If you've only ever had the good awful underripe honeydew they put in fruit trays for catering, then yeah you'd probably think it's underwhelming. A good, ripe honeydew is my second favorite melon.
How is strawberry not included, it's a double, neither straw nor berry
Have you ever eaten a passionfruit? You gotta get your fingers in there to get the juices flowing, then you gotta slurp it up with your tongue, licking it clean .. passionfruit surpasses it's name.
Well, orange you glad?
Grapefruit grows bunched up, kinda but not really like grapes.
Passionfruit is named for its flower, which has structures that correspond numerically to the stations of the cross and are thus a reference to the Passion of Christ. In this sense, "Passion" refers to suffering, not love or joy.
So, your saying, for a passionfruit to live up to its name it would have to cause stigmata, right? That's pretty hardcore.
But how about dem apples? Dem apples are pretty good.
What's with the honeydew hate? It's one of the juiciest fruits out three and tastes amazing.
I think technically the name lives up to the fruit, didn't the fruit come before the colour? Or am I thinking of mandarin?
