Donut Peach / Saturn Peach - New discovery.

Yesterday I made a trip to Kroger... and was trying to get around a lady in the produce isle by backtracking past the peaches... What caught my eye was what I thought was a genetically grown smashed peach... There was a pile of them with no price or label as to what it really was, but I just HAD to get one. (It cost me 36 cents)... $2.99/lb @ .12lbs



^One medium bite showing the buttercream-colored flesh

Donut peach pit is small, as anticipated.






Would I pay 36 cents again? Probably.

The flavor and texture of the skin and flesh of the peach are practically the same as a regular peach (to me, although I haven't had a regular peach in a long time), except it took about 6-7 medium bites (did not peel it) to eat whereas a regular peach might take double to triple the amount.
 
I imagine this would be ideal for children's lunches or a snack for people on a calorie-based diet.

A quick list on why my discovery was worthwhile.

And a special thanks to China for introducing this into our culture.
