I have known this three-character fruit for a long time. I didn't like it at first sight. The brown skin was covered with fine needle-like bristles. When I saw the furry skin, I got goosebumps all over my body, and even my body trembled slightly. I don't know if other people feel this way, but I feel uncomfortable watching it.

I peeled off its skin, and the inside was even stranger. The pulp turned out to be green. When you cut it open, you can see that there are spots in the middle, which are very different from ordinary fruits and are quite strange. Listening to them, there will be some sesame-like black spots when you bite it, and the taste is either sweet or sour. The sweet ones are very sweet, and the sour ones are also very sour. The two extremes are very different. But no matter what the taste is, I don't want to try it at all.

Once, several of our brothers and sisters got together, and my grandma cut kiwi fruit for everyone and said it was very sweet. My sister picked it up and took a bite without saying a word. She nodded and said, "Well, it's really sweet." She quickly finished half of it, then took the other half and continued eating, as if she had no intention of stopping. After hearing sister's praise, everyone picked it up and ate it, and everyone said it was very sweet after eating.

But I was reluctant to take action, but my mouth couldn't help but salivate, and I couldn't help but swallow my saliva. At this time, grandma said: "Cheng, you can eat one too, it's very sweet." I shook my head. In fact, I really wanted to try it, but when I saw the furry skin, I got goosebumps. I thought: I'll take one secretly and taste it while others are not paying attention.

After a while, grandma went to the yard to collect clothes and put the plate with kiwis on the kitchen table. I peeked into the kitchen, tiptoed in, took half of it and took a bite. It was sweet and slightly sour, and it tasted really good. "It turns out to be so delicious!" I couldn't help but sigh.

From then on, I started to like this weird kiwi fruit!
