Recently I tasted an unknown berry like fruit In southern part of India which was sweet in texture after consuming I felt like all of my blood are getting warm. Which fruit it could be ?

I know lots of haition fruits in the swap shop in florida, theres so many exotic fruits. I'm also half haition. Things like these little berries that taste like mango and berries that taste like coconut. The mango berries are green and they are pronounces ken-nent I think or key-nt? I also have a tea plant my grandma gave me. Its a haition plant you can grow and use the leaves as tea. Also dont be suprised if your arm itches for a split second when you touch the leaves, also the flowers are pink with green buds at the bottom. When adult they have a woody trunk. They are kinda like a tree but a plant. Haition mangoes are also HUGE. SO good. Theres also these plants near the beaches in southern florida that grow berries that taste and look like grapes. They arent grapes though.

That may be why it's not really something anybody talks about out here; this species is everywhere where I live, but I never even knew it had a fruit that people could eat, let alone a delicious one. I'm very interested to eat it, but it's such an arid environment I actually do feel bad taking something from the animals who rely on it when I can simply eat something else. I will keep on the lookout, though, and perhaps make a trade with some other fruit if I find a good pod. I think I will also grow some in my back yard; apparently they must be cross-pollinated in order to produce fruit, but they grow fairly quickly. Maybe by next year I can have my own stash of this fruit.

If your neighbors blast the bass again try applying a Hi-Pass filter (this omits any low frequncies below a certain frequency) with a high Q and turning it up to the highest frequency that doesn't suck all the bass out of your voice. Somewhere between 120 and 240 hz should do it depending on the curve of your EQs Hi-Pass. You can get rid of quite a bit of that bass usually without effecting the voice too much.

I have yuccas in my front garden as landscape specimens. I haven't seen any fruit yet, but I know what to look out for now. Sometime when travel to Australia is possible again, you ought to come here in our Spring and try red quandongs . They are a native fruit, very high in vitamin C. The fruit is like a loose rind around a round, pitted seed. When ripe, it tastes both sweet and slightly tart and very rich, really delicious. They are hard to get commercially, because the trees are hemiparasitic. You can make excellent pies from fresh or dried quandongs.

Yucca is the traditional plant for the center of a four-square raised bed garden. And in the '70s, there was a shampoo called Yucca Dew...which had somewhat questionable ads.

Hey, nice video! Too bad I was late with the chilling to reduce bitterness. (Unless you had stored it in the fridge) We should have more fruits you haven't covered yet in the next few months. Will keep you posted. Thanks for the mention!

Do you know what the species of this yucca is? All of the yucca fruits that I've found go from hard and green to dry and dropping their seeds.

Could you filter out the seeds? mashing it through a strainer? It looks SO delicious. Very cool review. I really want to try it.

BEWARE! Yucca aloifolia is unique in this genus of about 150 species in being bee pollinated and having fleshy fruit. It’s also unusual for being native to the Southeastern US. Almost all of the other species are In the western half of the continent, are moth-pollinated, and have dry mature fruit. Most important for the squeamish, the moths lay eggs on the flowers, and their larvae (maggotlike caterpillars) eat half of the developing fruit, leaving their frass (poop) behind. Not quite blackberry jam!

I looked up the study( only a single study that showed honeybees pollinate this?) but i'm not convinced that bees are the main pollinators of the plant, it doesn't make sense for non native european bees to be the only pollinator observed, the main native pollinator could still be the yucca moths, or some other native insect. Where i live there are no yucca moths and i don't believe i've ever seen any Yucca aloifolia set fruit, i'll definitely take a closer look in the future.

The Yucca that I have growing in my yard grows in zone 5. It will flower and fruit but it isn't anything like the fruit you have. I will have to pay better attention to it this year. I keep finding out that various plants in my yard are eatible that I didn't know about before.

This isn't the yucca that was shown in those video clips of survivalists in the western USA deserts, that was Mojave Yucca. This yucca doesn't grow in the desert and is on the east coast.

Monocots may be rather boring plants, but they sure do have some of the craziest fruits! I wonder if you could ever get your hands on some Cordyline, I've read that C. indivisa fruit is supposed to be edible, along with C. australis and C. frucitosa having edible rhizomes.

Very interesting. Please tell me what exactly is the species of yucca this fruit? Is it yucca baccata, yucca aloifolia or another ? Do all species of yucca fruits taste the same? In our country (Azerbaijan) this plant has recently been planted by everyone in their gardens. We seem to have a species of yucca aloifolia growing here. Now in September, green fruits appear. In what month does the fruit fully ripen?

When it comes to survival forage, I've found that there's a difference between edible and "eat-able". Some things are certainly edible... but you really don't want to. I'm looking at you Noni. Thankfully, yucca is both.
