Yesterday I got Greek yellow kiwis and I was not impressed

[SEEING-TO-BELIEVE]

i like greece but there is a difference between the yellow kiwis from there to the yellow kiwis from new zealand it's "sky and earth" difference..

the greek yellow wiki is not tasty at all and a bit salty too in my experience..

i will have to wait for the israeli summer when they import kiwis from new zealand..

i wish it was different..

talking of fruits..
have you heard of ORRI oranges and clementines? at peak season they are awsome..

i remember many years ago a local vegan that used to live abroad said that the produce in israel compared to the usa is so different in favor to the israeli produce..

now i understand what she meant.

I think I tried yellow kiwis once and didn't like them at all. I far prefer the green ones that have a little zing to them.

I wasn't crazy about the yellow ones I tried just once.

Don't think I'd ever heard of much less seen yellow kiwis.

A few years back I had kiwis that were sold as " Golden Kiwis" which were actually very good. I see them on occasion at the store, not regularly.

 

[HeyItsSara]

i don't like the golden kiwis. we do like clementines, though!!!

some orri oranges are sweet similar to clementines.. have you heard of orri citrus fruits?

 

[dragnlaw]

Next time in the grocers I'll check to see if the mandarin oranges are listed as "Orri" type mandarins. never really thought about different varieties in mandarins. LSNED (lol - learn something new every day!)

 

[SEEING-TO-BELIEVE]

maybe it is exported to europe only
america might be too far..

 

[SEEING-TO-BELIEVE]

here is how the label looks like in israel

I've often seen Jaffa oranges but never noted if they had a sub-name.

 

[SEEING-TO-BELIEVE]

now is the time of year that they sell big clementines that are almost seedless.

 

[dragnlaw]

That is very big indeed! Hope it is juicy and sweet for all its size.

 

[SEEING-TO-BELIEVE]
