Frozen bananas rock my world!
I know you probably described in an earlier post, but what is a Feijoa and what does it taste like!? Intrigued!!
Aren’t frozen bananas the best?! It would be good if I described how they taste in another post.. but since I didn’t, here you go: well they taste kind of tangy; kind of like guava or a bit like strawberry. And this delicious fruit has a texture a bit similar to kiwi, if kiwis were seedless. They also look quite ugly (I think) compared to similar great tasting fruit. Here is a timely post from Milkwood about feijoas: http://milkwood.net/2012/05/09/how-to-romance-your-feijoa/
