Do I eat it like an apple or what?

I heard they taste like cum

>>8244153
Reporting senpai.
Couple of trees around here that me and the neighborhood old ladies collect around.

They're fucking great.


>>8245837
More like a Strawberry or Grape.

>>8245878
The most certainly do not.

They smell awful and they have the worst texture. They're all over the road to work, it's disgusting.

>>8245984
What do they taste like then? Only one i've ever had was unripe and tannin-ed my mouth out of existence

>>8244153

>>8244176

unless your diet consists of nothing but cinnamon, citrus, and pineapple, your semen should not taste anything like a persimmon

No be patient. They take a long time to ripen. Find a coolish and dry place. Just wait. Once its ripe you will have slurpy goopy goodness.

But don't buy too many (a box) because they all ripen at the same moment and you will only a small window of opportunity before it rots.

I had to slurp all 24 ripe persimmons in 2 days :((((

Dried persimmon is my most favorite candy from the earth.

I've never had one, what do they taste like?

>>8246811

Smoky, a bit cinnamon-y, and if ripened, extremely overwhelmingly sweet.

>>8244153
Tastes like sandy cum if it's not perfectly ripe

>>8246814

>>8246811
See image

>>8246811
Like Honey-Melons?
if they are not ripe enough they can be a bit chalky.

>>8246933
Like honey dew melons? I have one of those here I bought last week I'll cut it up and see what it's like

>>8244153
How do you eat it without its astringent properties? It bothers me. I fight believe it's unripe since it tastes quite sweet otherwise.

>>8247454
>it tastes quite sweet otherwise.
yeah, it's still a fruit, dumbass. It's astringent because it's unripe. I don't know what else to tell you. Stop fighting believe.

>>8247527
How do I know when it's ripe?

>>8247682
It'll be somewhat soft to the touch.

>>8244153
Hell yeah

>>8247685
Ok. Thanks for the info.

>>8247682
If you have the astringent variety (shaped more like a Roma tomato than a regular tomato) then it needs to be quite mushy before you can eat it. It will probably have some spots on it. I don't like the astringent variety as it really isn't useful as anything other than a spread by the time it's edible.

>>8244153
Permissions are fucking GOAT. You can make a damn good pie with em.

>>8244153
Oh fuck yes. I loved eating these as a kid

>>8244175
You mean months and months ago?

>>8247527
Kek just realized that I said fight believe. I'm using google keyboard swipe typing and didn't realize I typed fight instead of don't.

>>8248126
Is the non-astringent category shaped like a regular tomato?

>>8244153
Who here bezoar?

>>8246807
You could have just frozen them

The non astringent variety (smaller one) is, although better soft, edible hard and isn't astringent.

The large one is only edible when really soft.
