In Costa Rica, we call this cohombro. It's common to leave it out to perfume a home OR blend it with water to make juice OR cook it with tapa (like raw sugar molasses) to candy it. Edited to add: I don't think yours was ripe enough.
I love the one (I think it was the jackfruit or the one that looks like it) where she describes the taste as "reminiscent of vomit". It may be a entirely different video, but I believe that's the one.
I just ordered a “large leftover” box from Miami fruit. It is being delivered tomorrow morning. I can’t wait to see what I get this time. ❤I love Miami Fruits!!
I looked that up, in portuguese it’s name is Melão Caboclo or Melão Croá, and is from Amazonia It’s make sense that I’m have never seen that before, as I’m from São Paulo
Never seen this in my life. Born and raised in Brazil, almost 30 years. Never heard people talking about it anywhere and I know we have A LOT of fruits, but this one is news. Showed this to my friends who live in Amazonas (a estate within the amazon forest) and they also never heard of it. Must be those fruits only natives know about, like those natives living in their communities. Interesting big hotdog 😂
Some fruits I'd love to see you try: Guaraná, jabuticaba (tree grape!), açai, cambuci, cupuaçu, jenipapo, caju (cashew apple!), yellow passion fruit... Any brazilian fruit, really xD

I have a sudden memory of seeing seeds for this when I was young, for sale in a catalog of rare, unusual, or heirloom seeds. It was sold along seeds for Queen Anne’s Pocket Melon which was supposedly inedible but smelled so good that people in the 1800s carried them around for, well, perfume!
Emmy your so lucky you get to try all of these amazing fruits, keep up the good work really enjoy watching your videos and learning more about our amazing world.
Last time i actually watched ur videos was like 10 years ago when ur channel was emmymadeinjapan and u made the poppin cookin vids and nerunerune, glad to see ur still here
So interesting to see one and hear about the flavor. I love gardening and have seen these in seed catalogs. Never tried them as my growing season is too short.
You should try tree tomatoes (aka tamarillo) - they're one of my favorite fruits. I tried them while I was visiting Kenya. They're delicious and so fun to eat! You can cut them in half and scoop out the insides to eat or you can bite off the tip and squeeze the insides right into your mouth like a gogurt/gogo squeeze.
Everybody yelling at her about where its found... Emmy, keep doing what you do. I play you at 2x and the cheering part sounded like it rabbits eating crunchy foods! Funny
Emmy have you tried monster fruit? Its from the common house plant Monstera deliciosa, aka the Swiss cheese plant! The fruit sort of looks like a cob of corn. It's flesh looks like little tiles that fall away as it ripens. Please check it out!
Emmy! Have you ever tried miracle fruit?! It has the strange effect of altering your taste buds! Bitterness vanishes and even tastes sweet! It’s amazing.
Emmy, have you ever tried the fruit of the Monstera deliciosa aka the Swiss cheese plant? It’s sometimes called Fruit Salad fruit. I just had some in Brisbane, Australia and thought of you immediately!! Apparently it’s native to Mexico so maybe you can get ahold of it!
Have you ever heard of a delicata honeyboat squash? They're supposed to be one of the sweetest squash varieties to ever be grown, to the point they are sometimes served as desert.
Have you tried Lonicera caerulea? It's called "blåbärstry" in Sweden, but has lots of other names: Haskap, honeyberry, blue-berried honeysuckle.... There are lots of named versions that taste quite different and are divided into "canadian", "polish" and "russian" depending on where they were first grown (the different gruops bloom at different times and you need at lest two in the same group to get berries). We got some as a house warming gift (from the first grower in Sweden!) and for a long time, I didn't think they got any fruit and then I realized that they bloom (tiny blooms!) before setting leaves and the fruit is ready already in may (which the birds realized way before me)
It looks like a big hot dog! But I have a hard time imagining what a Hello Kitty store or eraser smells like, Emmy 🤔 😂😂 You know when she makes that high pitched “hmm” that this one is maybe not the best! 😂 Love you, Emmy! ❤❤
I'm 66 and have been all over the island 🇵🇷 ( all the municipalities) and never heard of that "fruit" or of a liquor made with it. Obviously, it's possible but highly unusual.
Have you tried SEA GRAPES (Coccoloba uvifera)? It's a beautiful tree, but fewer people know that the ripe fruits are quite tasty (if you manage to get to them before the birds do).
O bet it would taste great as a porridge with rice like a sweet congee, or in tempura, or a curry a filling in egg rolls, a pairing with conch in a stew, even sauteed with seasoning, or a pie, or even pudding. Or as fufu!
It looks like a large red courgette/zucchini. Now the courgette is very normal here in the Netherlands. But it was not so common in the seventies. They tried to introduce it as 'Cussa/Kussa'. So that name is also similar. Maybe it should be cooked to make it more tasty.
I hate to be that person, but at 2:28 you say "liqueur," but the subtitles read "lacquer." I wouldn't want to be drinking that. 🙂 Cheers and thanks for the upload!
Learned something today. I learned that there are adults in this world who have never eaten raw potato! We grew up eating raw potato as a snack. Peel, slice, salt, crunch! Oh yeah, I learned about that funky fruit featured. Never heard of it before...

Ah-ha! I call Do-Over! Treat that suckuh like they do in Costa Rica.
I was wondering whether it could be candied. Its great to know they could be done that way
I was wondering if was ripe as well.
Every time I hear the fruity fruits intro I get so HYPED!!😆
YAY!!!
@@emmymade it’s such a silly intro, I love it. Thanks for being such an awesome person. ❤
I was thinking the same thing today
SAME! I also sing it in my day to day life, which I’m sure makes people question my sanity.
I got a funny thought of someone getting VIOLENTLY hyped about such and inoffensive song 😂
Cook it! Please do another video telling what the casabanana is like after cooking.
yes please!!
I agree!
Came looking for this comment!
Same!
Is it cooked like squash or in desserts like pumpkin? Or both?
Emmy you are so great at describing flavours, scents & textures. Truly makes these videos all the more special!✨️
Thank you. 🧡
And always just so stinkin’ pleasant ❤
I love the one (I think it was the jackfruit or the one that looks like it) where she describes the taste as "reminiscent of vomit". It may be a entirely different video, but I believe that's the one.

As soon as you said, “Hello Kitty eraser” I knew exactly the scent you were speaking of…😊
YAAASSSS!🌸
Ahh! Sammmee! I miss those little gums too :(
I just ordered a “large leftover” box from Miami fruit. It is being delivered tomorrow morning. I can’t wait to see what I get this time. ❤I love Miami Fruits!!
Yay! Enjoy the fruity unboxing. 🍌🍍🥭🥥🥑
In Puerto Rico we call it "Pepino Angolo" usually it is left to mature a little more. water and sugar are added in a mixer to create juice.
I wonder if you could make it into a bread like zucchini bread. Super cool, never heard of this before. Love your channel ❤️❤️❤️
I'm so glad you're back doing Fruity Fruits again it's always been one of my favorite series of yours! Keep it up 😊
As a Brazilian it is my duty do say, I have NEVER seen this in my 35 years so... Not that common
Are you a city Brazilian or a country Brazilian? Also, are you more European or Indigenous?
I’m also Brazilian, and I NEVER have seen that fruit before
Same.
Also never heard of it. I wonder in which region they are more common.
It seems like its also called "melão-caboclo" or Cruá
I looked that up, in portuguese it’s name is Melão Caboclo or Melão Croá, and is from Amazonia
It’s make sense that I’m have never seen that before, as I’m from São Paulo

Sounds like it would make for a good pie filling 🥧 (pumpkin or sweet potato pie style)
Some fruits I'd love to see you try: Guaraná, jabuticaba (tree grape!), açai, cambuci, cupuaçu, jenipapo, caju (cashew apple!), yellow passion fruit... Any brazilian fruit, really xD
Australian here, jabuticaba are one of my favourite fruits! I hope she tries them at some point.
Acerola e pitanga também!
@@Natalie-nj2zs Não acredito que esqueci de acerola... xD
Mas pitanga ela já experimentou!
ua-cam.com/video/PqeTA-xitjY/v-deo.html (video 35 na playlist Fruity Fruits dela!)
There are def unlimited fruits I want to see her try. I hope she does a weekly fruit tasting
Have you ever tried tamarind? We have a lot of it in Mexican candies but it’d be cool to see the natural pod it’s in.
I have a sudden memory of seeing seeds for this when I was young, for sale in a catalog of rare, unusual, or heirloom seeds. It was sold along seeds for Queen Anne’s Pocket Melon which was supposedly inedible but smelled so good that people in the 1800s carried them around for, well, perfume!
OMG When you said it smells like a hello kitty eraser I got a HUGE FLOOD of memories that I had forgotten about from childhood 😭😭 thank you!
That should be more ripe and it changes the flavor SOOOO MUCH it’s amazing incredibly tasty!
Emmy your so lucky you get to try all of these amazing fruits, keep up the good work really enjoy watching your videos and learning more about our amazing world.
That's a hot dog fruit! Thanks Emmy ❣️
That’s what I was coming here to say!!! Why no hotdog references? Hehe
@@elizabethmccoy272 ( here ya go) geez where did that giant hot dog come from? I didn't know there were hot dogs that grew in the wild. 😅
Flavors can always be so subjective. You always provide the best descriptors! Love it!!!
I was really hoping you would try cooking it and see if you like it better after being cooked lol. But it was very interesting nonetheless ^.^
Last time i actually watched ur videos was like 10 years ago when ur channel was emmymadeinjapan and u made the poppin cookin vids and nerunerune, glad to see ur still here
I feel like you and weird fruit explorer need to do a collab. 💜
So interesting to see one and hear about the flavor. I love gardening and have seen these in seed catalogs. Never tried them as my growing season is too short.
I hope you kept some of the seeds to try germinating! Would be so cool to see if you could grow some

Fruity fruits is one of my favorite series you do, Emmy!
I definitely thought the thumbnail was a giant thing of balogna
Everybody yelling at her about where its found... Emmy, keep doing what you do.
I play you at 2x and the cheering part sounded like it rabbits eating crunchy foods! Funny
I love fruity fruits, what a joy!
Emmy! You should definitely try the monstera fruit! It looks like green rotten corn but tastes like a fruit salad!
She did it already a long time ago 😔
Emmy have you tried monster fruit? Its from the common house plant Monstera deliciosa, aka the Swiss cheese plant! The fruit sort of looks like a cob of corn. It's flesh looks like little tiles that fall away as it ripens. Please check it out!
WHAT?!?!?! I'm totally OBSESSED with Monstera, I had no idea they had fruit!!!
Sounds super weird. Emmy needs to do Monstera fruit!!!
She did already a long time ago😅
@@promisedjubileedanielsShe did already a long time ago😅
@@lornahuddleston1453She did already a long time ago😅
That fruit actually looks pretty yummy inside I love cucumbers and this is huge. Thank you for these episodes Emmy 😅
Hi Emmy! I would love it if you tried feijoas for a fruity fruits episode!! They are my absolute favourite fruits!!
Yes! I agree! Those are so GOOOOD!
It's better to cook with, makes great preserves, cake, quick bread. Also good in a smoothie!
With that color, it must have some nutrients. I wonder if it gets sweeter when cooked? It would make a nice addition to soups and stews.
Yay! An Emmy video!
I adore your content!
Will you do a video trying it cooked? I'm curious if that will be improve the taste
Yaaaay, I'm soooo excited!!!
Emmy. Fruity Fruits. Knowledge. Yes!
❤😃
Emmy! Have you ever tried miracle fruit?! It has the strange effect of altering your taste buds! Bitterness vanishes and even tastes sweet! It’s amazing.
Yes! Many years ago 😆: ua-cam.com/video/Y1ldo2CfMdc/v-deo.html
Emmy, have you ever tried the fruit of the Monstera deliciosa aka the Swiss cheese plant? It’s sometimes called Fruit Salad fruit. I just had some in Brisbane, Australia and thought of you immediately!! Apparently it’s native to Mexico so maybe you can get ahold of it!
My first thought when I saw the title of this was snozcumbers from BFG.
Hooray for fruity fruits!! This was how I found you originally ❤
I love that little "hmmm" screech you do when you're surprised or like something.
I wish we could have seen you try it cooked! It looks like the type squash that would roast well.
I was hoping you'd cook some, too, and see what that's like. I'd love to see that if you still have the fruit available.
Emmy, you handled this video wsy more maturely than I could have...
How could you leave us hanging??! Please do a part 2 cooking it! 😭🙏
I honestly found it so weird you've never tried a raw potato! I loved eating raw potato, I'd always sneak one whenever I cooked with my mom 😂
I was always told that raw potatoes are not good for you.
same, of all the wild things she's tasted, was surprised to have missed what I think to be such a common experience.
@@CookingWithCows oh, why aren't they good for you? 🤔
I thought the same thing!! 🤣🤣🤣 I love raw potatoes and was shocked when she said she’s never tried one!! ❤
Are you a goat?
There's some great phallic imagery in this video
Have you ever heard of a delicata honeyboat squash? They're supposed to be one of the sweetest squash varieties to ever be grown, to the point they are sometimes served as desert.
I really love the fruity fruits videos 🫶
That's a hot dog fruit! Love this ongoing series. 👌
I'd love to see a recipe where this is in it's cooked form
My favorite series! ❤
Have you tried Lonicera caerulea? It's called "blåbärstry" in Sweden, but has lots of other names: Haskap, honeyberry, blue-berried honeysuckle.... There are lots of named versions that taste quite different and are divided into "canadian", "polish" and "russian" depending on where they were first grown (the different gruops bloom at different times and you need at lest two in the same group to get berries). We got some as a house warming gift (from the first grower in Sweden!) and for a long time, I didn't think they got any fruit and then I realized that they bloom (tiny blooms!) before setting leaves and the fruit is ready already in may (which the birds realized way before me)
Guavaberry! I told you about it in the last fruity fruit episode too. Lol
I've been excitedly waiting another episode of fruity fruits! ❤
Love a good fruity fruits! Thanks Emmy!
My fav series!
Wow! Something Emmy hasn't eaten yet but I have! Raw potatoes!!!! For some reason I liked them when I was a little girl. 😂
Cherimoya !! That's very sweet, custardy, reaaally nice (a word I learned with this series of videos, with tangy haha)
Its often difficult to know when an unfamiliar fruit is ripe.
we have a similar sized one in the philippines… we call it upo. but they’re a green vegetable but also big. 😊
Pls do an exotic fruit asmr 🤣 also you should try ice cream bean if you haven’t already!! I’m curious to try that.
Fruity Fruits is top tier, instant watch
“That’s a hot dog fruit!” :P
PART 2! How was it cooked?
Like a pie, or roasted like an Acorn Squash, or made into a soup (similar to a pumpkin or squash soup), or even a dessert….
It looks like a big hot dog! But I have a hard time imagining what a Hello Kitty store or eraser smells like, Emmy 🤔 😂😂 You know when she makes that high pitched “hmm” that this one is maybe not the best! 😂 Love you, Emmy! ❤❤
First time I've heard of this thing.
I'd likely chop and mash it up, cook it soft and make a "pumpkin pie" with it. Maybe add some sugar.
You should find a recipe to cook the ripe cassabanana! To see what the difference is and how it is prepared.
Awesome as always thanks ❤
I'm from Louisiana and I have never seen this before! I want to try it now!
Aaaahhh Fruity fruits is backkk
You could taste chokebeeries, elderbeeries, physalis or lingonberry. One more berry you could try is the damson plum, found in Switzerland ;)
I like how it looks. It’s big and cool.
I'm 66 and have been all over the island 🇵🇷 ( all the municipalities) and never heard of that "fruit" or of a liquor made with it. Obviously, it's possible but highly unusual.
emmy has the warmth of the 3rd grade teacher I wish I had growing up
I would have liked to see you cook it a few different ways and then describe it in each way. With different flavorings 😊
My eyebrows hit my hairline when you said it smelled like a Hello Kitty eraser. Woah! A natural food that smells like that?!?!
I took a shot of whisky every time you sniffed that thing. 22 shots!! I'm having my stomach pumped
This fruit needs to be eaten extremely ripes
, when is very ripe is much is soft and taste very sweet
If it’s anything like pumpkin can we invent Cassabanana lattes? 😂
Genius😲
Have you tried SEA GRAPES (Coccoloba uvifera)? It's a beautiful tree, but fewer people know that the ripe fruits are quite tasty (if you manage to get to them before the birds do).

aw there it is. we were missing the videos where you compare everything to pumpkin

Cajun here 🙋. I've never seen one of those! But I will be seeking them out now!
I’m so glad your smell is back.

It looks like how I always imagined the snozcumber from the BFG
