Let me tell you about my favorite fruit…the Pomelo. (In Chinese, it’s called a ‘You Zi’.) It looks like a volleyball-sized yellow grapefruit. You open it up by peeling away the thick, spongy peel to reveal what looks like a huge, peeled orange. You then split a segment away and peel the ‘skin’ off the segment, revealing a bunch of little juicy cells in the shape of the segment.
Ah, but the taste! It tastes like a sweet grapefruit and you can’t get enough of it. In fact, the first time I ate one here in Yichang, I ate the whole fruit…giving me a very full, but happy, stomach!
