Great taste, crisp and fresh. Taste is cross between apple and Water ChestnutSome mature fruits have a slight alkalin, and slimy feel. Concerned me at first; as I was not familiar with it. But it was nothing.
A couple of cute Chinese girls, and their elderly mom, were picking these things. They were buisy pulling down limbs, and filling buckits in a strange language. They interrupted their chinese chatter, and told me in English that the name was Jujube. ... a pleasant familiarity and common berry from "home". Great! I then had some too.
Nobody was dying. Everybody was happy. So, I stuffed my pockets, and headed back to the car with a great new experience.
