Yahoo! got the stick from Mumbaiites.

As a fruit lover and that too a trier who never hesitates to taste new fruits that I have not heard of before, the article in Yahoo! titled, "13 weirdest fruits of Mumbai" naturally attracted me to read it with avid curiosity.

Whenever I go to hill stations, I try every hill fruit that are not available in the plains like Madras.

Well, this article in Yahoo! published about fruits that are strange to the article author named Shaheen Peerbhai. The mention of popular fruits such as Amla and Chikoo as weird fruits among other fruits that definitely new to most of the Indians not living in Bombay, attracted several caustic comments from Mumbaiites. (Don't forget to read the comments please.)

FYI, here are those other fruits that are new to me:

* Chanya Manya bor
* Indian Jujube
* Water Chestnut
* Wood apple (image below)


What is known to you is strange to me-eh?
