    Fun fact: In many countries, persimmons are known as Kakis, and Germany is one of those countries. The problem is that in German, this sound like a minimisation of the word “shit” (“Kacke”).

    I don’t think they taste that great and I dislike the texture.

    However they have a pleasant smell and are an aesthetic looking fruit.

    I bought one at some ethnic grocery store because I saw them on animal crossing new leaf and was curious what they tasted like.

    Not for me.

        I can see how some people might like them. I’m not sure exactly what I don’t. I think I got a good one. I just didn’t like it.

    Actually I do. My partner has a specific smile she only gets when eating persimmons and I refuse to turn down a chance to see it.
