Question

I am a fruit, that's obvious .... but what is my name? And where is my natural habitat?

Answer 1

Ummm...pareces una mezcla (= un híbrido) entre un pimiento y una mandarina. Creo que tu hábitat natural es un laboratorio

Yes a laboratory on Mars. Very wierd fruit. I have searched the internet and cannot find it. - gringojrf, Feb 27, 2012

jajaja, yo tampoco, Gringojrf, creo que en Google no hay imágenes de los laboratorios de Marte :) - Cordobesa, Feb 27, 2012

¡Por qué no! Hay todo el mundo en Google. Y si el internet tiene un foto de esta fruta tambien. - gringojrf, Feb 27, 2012

Answer 5

The fruit of Solanum quitoense is known as lulo (or toronja) in Colombia or naranjilla in Ecuador and Peru. Its natural habitat are the Andes mountains in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. Its juice is green and quite delicious! Its fruitflesh is eaten raw or cooked. A little more info on lulos and other tropical fruits can be found here

In Mexico there is a green orange juice that the call mexican orange juice. Is it related to this? - gringojrf, Feb 27, 2012

I really don't know, but I do know that this fruit is known in Mexico as 'lulun'. The taste is described as a mixture of lime and rhubarb. Butfortunately I didn't taste any rhubarb in it, more like a weird pineapple-like fruit .... - mcl020, Feb 27, 2012
