Is it a Plum? Is it an Apricot?
I noticed that Willo blogged about this recently, and it reminded me that I've been wanting to mention this, too.
Have you had the pleasure of eating a Pluot??
A Pluot is a fruit that is a cross between a plum and an apricot.
They're very yummy - and hard to describe. Although really, they do taste like the combination of a plum and an apricot.
If you try one, make sure that it's very ripe, and a little soft. I've had ones that weren't entirely ripe, and they simply weren't full of pluot goodness.
Okay - here's the best part:
In our house, we don't call them "Pluots".
No.
Here, (thanks to Dick's amazing talent for renaming cross-bred fruits) we call them.....
Plapricots.
It's a much better name, don't you think?
