    Wow.. that would be a big berry.

    A lychee ? ..... it's an asian fruit I think! (Except with spikes right? There are different types!)

    Lol, yay!

    Those are really good and sweet! I love the juices you can get in a can ;) BTW: It's just one seed right? There are others that have a similar fruit inside but a different skin (one with a smoother brown skin and then one with a red skin and green spikes) they fairly taste the same :p

    I get what you mean. These are REALLY sweet and good. No sour or bitter flavor, very safe and quite popular actually ;)

    I love the dark ones. They are more fluffy and have longer spikes. Yep, just one...

    Most people i know dislike the whole texture and colour of the insides. Give it a try. Just don't buy too many in case you don't like them

    All I can guarantee you is that there is absolutely no weird strange flavors! It's just sweet! You should give one a try, it might become your fav fruit ;)
