Some people like and others hate the diversity of imported fruits.

There are more and more "foreign fruits", which are unusual in appearance and expensive in price.

Miss Luo, a citizen, likes to eat fruit and often patronizes major fruit shops. recently, she has found that strange-looking fruits are becoming more and more common. "A few days ago, I saw a kind of fruit with green skin and covered with scales in a fruit store on Donghe Road, so I bought one for 25 yuan." Miss Luo said that she later checked the Internet to know that this is called Sakya, the peel can not be eaten, inside the snow-white flesh can eat, the flesh is very sweet, but eat too much is a little tired.

Yesterday morning, the reporter in the Da Runfa supermarket also saw a strange-looking fruit, the skin is yellow with thorns, the shape is very similar to sea cucumber, the strange appearance attracted many customers to stop. "this is called Huo Shenguo, and it is said to be from Africa." Miss Wang, a citizen, spent 20 yuan not long ago to buy a ginseng fruit to taste fresh. according to her, this fruit has green seeds after it is cut, which should be dug up and eaten with honey. "it tastes a bit like cucumbers, but it is not cost-effective."

Placed side by side with Huo Ginseng fruit is a rare fruit with a snakeskin-like skin that is rough to the touch and sells for 27.9 yuan per jin. According to the supermarket staff, this fruit is a snake skin fruit from Thailand. "Snake skin pulp is crisp, unripe pulp is relatively white, sour and sweet, ripe pulp is yellow and sweet." But he also said that some of the customers who had bought it liked it very much, but many said it was difficult to accept the smell of snake skin fruit.

Dealers: foreign fruits that are too curious are not easy to sell. When choosing and buying, people should also pay attention to the merchants who use "medium" as "foreign" and inferior ones.

Although there are more and more exotic fruits on the market, they do not sell well in the eyes of dealers. "except for relatively common varieties such as mango, durian, kiwifruit and cherry, other strange-looking fruits are not easy to sell." Mr. Ke, the person in charge of Xinyang fruit, told reporters that such as avocado and ginseng fruit, the price is high, the taste is not good, and not many people buy it.

Another fruit dealer, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told reporters that when buying imported fruits, they should pay attention to the merchants who use "medium" to fill "foreign" and inferior ones. "many of the so-called imported fruits on the market now are actually fruit varieties introduced by fruit farmers from abroad and then planted at home." The dealer said that now some of the signs with the "American Hongti" brand are actually from Shandong, marked as "American navel orange" are actually grown in Jiangxi, as well as Huo Ginseng fruit and snake skin fruit have been planted in China.

In addition, the dealer said that even if the same imported fruit, the quality is good or bad. "the most obvious one is imported cherries, which are grown in New Zealand, Chile and the United States. Chile has the best quality, but many customers do not understand it. They spend a high price but do not get a good one." He also told reporters that as imported fruit often requires long-distance transportation and is usually picked when it is six or seven minutes ripe, it also reduces its delicacy. "often some customers who have bought imported fruits report to me that they don't taste good when they eat them in their country of origin."
