Fruits in Season August 2012 – Name that Fruit

[goodsamaritan]

I just did some shopping last night at Farmers Market in Cubao, Quezon City and look what I found! Name that fruit!

Input your comments below. Hint… one fruit is commonly sold as a vegetable… but since it has seeds in it, it is technically a fruit.

A great healer once taught me: “Follow the fruits in season” …and you will find health.

I could heal people too, if we had access to awesome fresh high-quality fruit, meat, and seafood all the time, like you do.  I'm a little jealous.  Heh.

First time to try eating raw squash fruit... ripe.  That one in the picture.

Holy cow!  It was just like eating a MELON!

Squash is awesome and should be an integral part of my raw paleo diet.
