persimmon to do what exactly?

[โ€“] morgan_423@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

Sir, this is a Wendy's.

All I got right now is this box of one dozen starving crazed weasels.

[โ€“] actionjbone@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Okay, I'll take those.

[โ€“] Postmortal_Pop@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Actually I do. My partner has a specific smile she only gets when eating persimmons and I refuse to turn down a chance to see it.

[โ€“] GreyShuck@feddit.uk 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's nothing. I have no granadillas, rambutans or mangosteens either.

[โ€“] blackbrook@mander.xyz 8 points 1 month ago

But, yes we have no bananas....

[โ€“] ubergeek@lemmy.today 6 points 1 month ago

Hard to find. Only two nurseries carry them.

[โ€“] AbouBenAdhem@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I ate the last one yesterday.

Did you really expect me to resist?

[โ€“] TheReanuKeeves@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They're a bit expensive around me

Understandable, this is almost like me asking why you aren't all eating durian. I am gloating

I don't think they taste that great and I dislike the texture.

However they have a pleasant smell and are an aesthetic looking fruit.

I bought one at some ethnic grocery store because I saw them on animal crossing new leaf and was curious what they tasted like.

Not for me.

[โ€“] mistermodal@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They vary a lot depending on ripeness

I can see how some people might like them. I'm not sure exactly why I don't. I think I got a good one. I just didn't like it.

Because I splurged and bought too many Snyder's of Hanover pretzel bags and now don't have any money. :C

[โ€“] jade52@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The honey mustard flavor is ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘

[โ€“] EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I don't normally like mustard anything, but yeah that shit is fire.

The house building company? Who can afford a house at the minute?

[โ€“] GooseGang@beehaw.org 2 points 1 month ago

I bought one earlier this week but it was so unripe it was inedible.

[โ€“] JackbyDev@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Because they're all over the sidewalk lol. I have a tree in my yard.
