I didn't know what they were or how I was supposed to eat them, but I ate them nonetheless. They were decent, but not my favorite. Perhaps they weren't ripe.

I've never tried eating them whilst crunchy - I love it when they're all soft and gooey and sweet.

I've never tried a Hachiya since the Fuyu type are the only kind I've seen around here, though they're imported too unfortunately. <br />I eat mine just the way you do!coconutandberrieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09808077876445841179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32492687.post-1485380368742954182014-11-10T09:35:28.951-08:002014-11-10T09:35:28.951-08:00I've never had a persimmon!!

I fell in love with them...Fuyu's are the best! I fell in love with them in California too. I've never successfully tried Hachiya. The first and only time I tried one, it was under-ripe, and my mouth felt like it had been filled with chalk. Since that experience I've stuck with the fuyu, where you can never go wrong! Crunchy or soft, they're always delicious.Cadry's Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05019006252875213755noreply@blogger.com
