Fruit vocabulary

This is my all time favourite fruit - the feijoa!  

They're so delicious I could eat about twenty in one go.  Feijoas come from South America - Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina and Colombia.  They are widely grown in New Zealand, and also can be found in Australia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, southern Russia and South Africa.

Another favourite of mine is the nectarine -

is called kiwifruit, not kiwi.

This is a kiwi!
