I have to admit, it comes by its name honestly. I certainly resembles a dragon, some exotic tropical fish or perhaps a pink armadillo. Its brilliant, magenta skin is not tough like I would have thought. In fact, it's rather soft and easy to cut through.
Slicing it lengthwise reveals a smooth, white flesh with numerous seeds, much like those in a kiwi. In fact, I'd say the taste also resembles kiwi and maybe a bit of pear.
One more cut and you can easily peel the skin back from the fruit and enjoy. Or cut slices into each quarter to make triangular shaped wedges.
It's not overly sweet and it's quite juicy. If you get the chance to try one, I recommend you go for it. They're full of nutrients, low in calories and have those wonderful antioxidants which help keep us healthy. In fact, you can have this piece. Yum!
And now, without further delay, here are the Posts of the Week. The icon below is yours for the taking if if your blog post is named as a POTW.
