RE: THE EDIBLE OUTDOORS #21 - THE AMERICAN PERSIMMON
@haphazard-hstead, Funny you mention game camera...There is a small-ish fruit tree to which our camera is attached. It does bear fruit with a striking resemblance to the persimmon, although that's the opinion from my untrained eye ;) Whatever the variety, the deer and critters love it to be sure.
In my personal experience, the under-ripe persimmon tastes like biting into a stick of deodorant, quite unpleasant! That was my first time trying, the second was ripe and delicious. There are so many more fruits to explore than the apples and bananas on everyone's counter!
haha -- that's a good way to describe an under-ripe persimmon. Nobody wants to try that stick of deodorant, lol! Maybe you will post about your game camera - and show us a fruit or two, too! : )
