Never heard of pluot, but Lychee i know from Chinese buffets. It's the gross stuff on the dessert island. Looks like a little pear with a hole in it if i'm thinking of the right stuff.
In Indian desserts the flesh is marinated in super-sweet syrup, and so the end result is delicious – if you have a sweet tooth. (Assuming I'm thinking of the right fruit.)
Yes. Lychee is delicious, and it is red with a grayish partially transparent flesh, and a big seed in the middle. No idea how one would find it gross. Oh, the rubbery texture...
Well, if you mean phonetically it sounds like Narnia, no, no it doesn't. But it does kind of sound like it belongs there with the Calormenes and stuff. Yeah. Tamarind.
There are both apriums and pluots. Both are a cross between apricot and plum; however, apriums look more like an apricot and pluots like a plum. Both are delicious! I cannot say the same about grapples - they are infused with artificial grape flavor and the smell reminds me of grape Dimetapp . . . icky.
I'm still not totally convinced the quizmaster didn't totally invent 'pluot' and get several other friends to play along. "Oh yeah, I eat those all the time!"
I got them all but I technically feel like I cheated as the only reason I got one of them is by typing pluto incorrectly. I thought a pluto could've been a type of fruit and then the correct answer popped up. I've never heard of that before.
English is not my native language, so I really can't be expected to know "pluot". If this had been in my native French or German, I'm sure I would have gotten this (uses Google translate)... nevermind, it's "pluot" in both languages.
I wonder if they tasted anything like a coptari?
Also, csgong2, you might want to turn this quiz into a yellow box quiz, because people can just type in names of random fruits and get points.
