Exotic Interlude... Dragon Fruit

How
Awesome
Does
This
Fruit
Look
?



This is DRAGON FRUIT!

Apparently it is the fruit of some sort of cactus.... high in fibre, low in fat, packed with vitamin B1, 2 & 3, it seems to be a popular breakfast or dessert in Asia.

Interesting fact off Wiki: "In Taiwan, diabetics use the fruit as a food substitute for rice and as a source of dietary fibre"
