Hala fruit, which is eaten exclusively by Pacific Islanders and visitors to the region, is made up of dozens of segments, called keys or cones. The innards of each key are pulpy, while the green outer edge is so fibrous it can be used as dental floss. Islanders chew on the raw fruit, boil it with grated coconut, or grind it into a paste. One taster likened the flavor of fresh hala juice to “a mixture of sugarcane and mango,” with the consistency of thick nectar.

The fruit ferments rapidly, emitting a stench that’s earned it the nickname “stink nut.”

That's what they called me in school. Puberty is a mean son of a bitch! 🤪

So a mango durian but less putrid and more... tropical. Interesting.

Looks like a planetary model that’s showing the core

[-] [email protected] 25 points 2 years ago

Looks really similar to Araucaria angustifolia's fruit

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

Reminded me of a pomegranate but I'd never seen that fruit before, that's definitely closer. I imagine they all must have some common ancestor though.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago

You can't fool me that's a plutonium core.

Don't touch that screwdriver

Aka the yummy Demon core

It reminds me of the segments seen in Monstera Deliciosa fruit, except that's got a long cylindrical shape rather than a spheroid shape that can measure upto 30-40cm long by 10cm wide. Those segments are a pale yellow though, and they taste like banana crossed with pineapple. Kind of looks like a banana x pineapple as well!

Monstera Deliciosa fruit

Is it a delicious monster of a fruit, a delicious fruit for monsters or a fruit for delicious monsters? Inquiring and weird minds want to know!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

(D) All of the above

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

Looks like an exploding moon in every sci Fi anime

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

Does it taste like a pomegranate? It looks like it would taste like a pomegranate.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

Candy corn dragon egg

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Wheres the seed(s)? Within that center anchor point? Or partitioned somewhere within the segments?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Reminds me a lot like a sugar apple, if it's anything like that then the flavor is very slight, almost flavorless. A lot like straight unflavored sugar that is significantly less sweet
