I mean, it's red in the middle. That's not normal for a kiwi. Big fan, never seen these

[-] Candelestine@lemmy.world 22 points 10 months ago

New to me too. I want to eat one.

I'm imagining kiwi-stawberry, but frankly that's just my animal brain drawing stupidly simple connections.

[-] kunegis@mander.xyz 2 points 10 months ago

It tasted pretty much like a yellow kiwifruit, nice and sweet and better to me than the green ones. I was disappointed however that it was still mostly green inside.

[-] DarkThoughts@kbin.social 4 points 10 months ago

Sour kiwis are so much better than the sweet ones.

[-] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 35 points 10 months ago

Most pictures I'm finding online of these look exactly the same. I'm even seeing produce boxes with pictures on the front of the inside of the fruit.

Yeah it's only mildly infuriating if it's false advertising

[-] hi_its_me@lemmy.world 21 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

If that’s the actual name of the fruit, why wouldn’t it be marketed under that name?

[-] tdawg@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

I mean it sounds like OP maybe didn't know that. 'sides it sets an expectation that the majority of the interior would be red, rather than the opposite

[-] pacology@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Was it 80% off by any chance?

[-] key@lemmy.keychat.org 4 points 10 months ago

I should post about "red delicious" apples being red but not delicious

Reddish Kiwi

[-] jopepa@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Then someone would be disappointed that it doesn’t taste like radishes

[-] MattMillz@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Should be like this https://www.zespri.com/en-SG/blogdetail/introducing-zespri-rubyred-kiwifruit

They address the possible color variations on the site:

BRB, taking my ruby red kiwi experience to the next level

[-] squiblet@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago

It's attractive, though.

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

I’d call it butthole kiwi, but that’s probably why I’m not a fruitnamist

[-] j4yt33@feddit.de 1 points 10 months ago

I think those look sick. Do they taste a bit like strawberries?

[-] kunegis@mander.xyz 0 points 10 months ago

It tasted good, but I don't think I would have been able to distinguish the taste from a "golden" kiwi

[-] silasmariner@programming.dev 1 points 10 months ago

Hey, I was going that way too tbf
