Carambola a.k.a 'Starfruit '

You knew this was coming (if you had read my earlier post about the Kiwano fruit)
But this one is really tasty. Oh yeah! Its like a dream come true for those who like grapes, apples, pineapples & sugracane(raw) and have dreamt about having them all merged.
Thats the best description of the taste I can provide... as of now :D

Well, even if you don't like all these fruits, you still might like the Carambola or Starfruit as most superstores like to call it. This picture explains why they call it the 'StarFruit' -


But be wary that the fruit has high content of sugar and oxalic acid and those with diabetes and kidney problems should stay away from this. (And also those who think oxalic acid is something dangerous)

The biology fanatics might be interested in checking the wiki page with scientific information about StarFruit.

P.S.: BTW, that picture is my original work of camera (Canon S3). The macros work great on this cam! :D
