Dragonfruit is probably the “cool kid” of the fruit world. Pumpkins are the ones that get made fun of.

@MilesExpress999 Dragonfruit is the hipster of the fruit world. It looks cool, but has little flavor to note.

Dragon fruit is the catfish of the fruit world. Looks like it would taste so exotic and tangy but it taste like water + seeds?

Dragon fruit is the flamingo of the fruit world. Tropical pink on the outside, translucent white flesh dotted with black seeds on the inside, a little like kiwi. It makes a show stopper exotic fruit salad. Come… https://instagram.com/p/Bx_6xvzFFt1/?igshid=1jpl8ss5oqljs
