Mykala — do you remember what this fruit was called?

Not Mykala, but is it a Pummelo?

Mykala

It is! It is!

Impressive exotic fruit knowledge. Do you happen to know anything about selecting good pummelo(e)s? That one was NOT GOOD.

Sam

Nope, sounds like my experience was about like yours.

Nils

It looks like grapefruit. Does it taste like grapefruit?

Mykala

Yes, it does taste like a grapefruit, but a bit sweeter. I wish there was something in the picture for scale… the thing is gigantic, and most of it is spongy white skin.

I’d say just buy a grapefruit. Except I don’t really like grapefruit, either.

Nils

Well, your hand is in there for scale. The thing does look pretty massive for a fruit. Maybe it’s a mutant deranged Pummelo.
