    I used to live in Hawaii, and we had one of these trees in our yard. I called them Dino-lemons. They made good lemonade.

    Jared, I've been thinking. I think you need to start planning trips with indigenous peoples of the world. This would allow you to possibly discover edible fruits that are either extremely rare or, if you're very lucky, completely novel to science. That would be crazy cool and entertaining.
    I remember going on a jungle hike with a local tribe, the Kreung, in Northern Cambodia. They showed me many, fascinating things in the jungle and among the things we saw was a type of wood that tasted like very mild, sweet liquorice. Now, I know that wood isn't a fruit but it just reminded me that these people knew so much about the forest that was probably not known by anyone else. There HAS to be so many discoveries to be made out there.

    Btw, here in Denmark it really isn't easy getting your hands on very exotic fruit. The most normal, exotic fruit to get is probably lychee - which is great and I love it. But we can only dream about tasting fruits like sapodilla, sugar apple, custard apple and finger lime. Do you know a website that ships worldwide..? So far I haven't been able to find one because many of the fruits are so perishable 🤔

    • @WeirdExplorer
      @WeirdExplorer  Місяць тому +6

      I don't check my bag usually, so I buy knives when I arrive to a new place and then ditch them when I leave. For new Caledonia I didn't bother because Vincent was showing us around and he had a proper knife. I think for this particular episode he forgot it so I pulled out my emergency knife, which is a tsa friendly camping knife that you can put in your carry on.

    But Gosh Darn It, Your clever clickbait, made me click. Not that I haven't clicked on your videos for the past few years cause they are super interesting and educational. Pfft. Imagine. I certainly don't have 5 lemon trees and was curious how this one is different. That one certainly puts my Genoa and Santa Teresa Femminello to shame tho but only by like half um length.
    I do appreciate the effort to try to find a lemon that fruits in a different season. That and lime would be amazing. Too many times you will see limes being sold that are super dry with barely a drop of juice for your tacos, guac or ceviche.
    This looks like an interesting lemon to try to hybridize with another for a combo of characteristics. The idea of a lemon that is juicy with an aspect that is medicinal could work for sure. Gotta breed out the seeds and that hard core of course.
    As a side note, I got a Mandarinquat baby tree after watching a couple of your vids, but alas... extreme heat killed it. I'm so sad about that. Ah well.

    Some lemon/citron plants don't produce very useful fruits despite their size(I'm looking at you Buddhas Hand). This video points out that fact. Bigger is often not better when it comes to citrus, unless it is a pomelo. If it isn't a pomelo and it is large, it is shit.
