Not so, unless those are the poxy English kind. The real Cape Gooseberry I'm talking about and which fits your description, looks like this K x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KarenT Report post Posted February 14, 2007 Now, what are those exotic teeny orange fruit with papery leaves that are often used as a garnish on posh puds?? Kumquats? Now me, I'm dead healthy. Last night I was a grilled salmon fillet with steamed veggies, and this morning I'll be a large bowl of sugar free muesli with fresh fruit and a mango smoothie. Dr Ugly would be proud of me! So why do I still feel like cr*p?!?! Karen x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bid Report post Posted February 14, 2007 You're quite right, Kathryn...but the name I know them by but couldn't remember was Physalis! Yum! Karen T...we've just got into smoothies in our house! They're yummy, and a great way to get loads of fruit into my two girlies, especially the nearly 12 year old. I discovered frozen fruit in the supermarket, which is great to keep in the freezer and easy to use Boho Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baddad Report post Posted February 14, 2007 Green and hairy??? Not so, unless those are the poxy English kind. The real Cape Gooseberry I'm talking about and which fits your description, looks like this K x Well I've always known them as kumquat - but looking at the latin name for them I shudder at the anagram you can make! (and for all you smart alec's i know it's one letter out . Sometimes jokes work better with mis-spelins ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kathryn Report post Posted February 14, 2007 Just googled kumquats and they are an entirely different fruit - they grow on trees and don't come in paper cases. I've never eaten one of those either. Bid I never knew the latin name for Cape Gooseberries though I spent a lot of my childhood eating them! They are heaven in a crumble - beat apples any day. My brain is desperately trying to make an anagram out of Physalis - nope - my brain's too slow today. K x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikergal Report post Posted February 15, 2007 This reply is connected to the cape gooseberry thing!!! Baddad, that anagram thingy's been bugging me ever since I read it, I knew what you meant but couldn't think of the bloomin word! I've just had to consult my dictionary to put myself out of my misery. And just to think I couldn't sleep last night for trying to remember it!!! Thanks for that...I'm easily pleased!
