Gave my kids some feijoa 1st week in QT, first time they had tried it.
They all hated it.
I've listed the little fuckers on trademe
It is a very polarizing fruit. Like Tamarillos. You don't often get people that think either fruit is just OK. Love or hate
-
Tamarillo are very temperature sensitive, don't like frost, IIRC (I have a client that grows them commercially) there aren't a huge amount of them being grown commercially around NZ.
I love feijoa, but my cnuty trees decided to produce f-all this season, which is why I used frozen stuff for my chutney.
Any excess fruit I freeze, so got plum, Apple, peach and feijoa (from last year) in the freezer at moment.

@taniwharugby didn't a lot of the tamarillos get some sort of disease too? Shame because I love them. The traditional varieties are fine but Tango are delicious

Simple leg of lamb on the charcoal tonight, served with cardamom rice and gravy. Nom nom nom. Best beloved did a almond citrus coconut cake with honey and mint syrup.
Fit. Fat. Happy.
blinded by the flash, but

Looks mint, haven't done a leg in years. Did you just slice that up? Assume it didn't fall apart.
I did a shoulder the other night in this bnb, was bloody average as the over just couldn't hold the heat and there was no dutch oven or even foil to work with me. So disappointing.

spot on.
So full though, 15km on the rower and a bike ride is just breaking even with the shit we're eating and drinking. Totally worth it though
