Aaj OP ne Japani Fal khaaya

As the title says, I ate Persimmon for the 1st time in my life.

When I was little, I used to watch all japanese cartoons which had references of this fruit like in Doraemon, Ninja Hattori.

If wondering how it tasted, then it was somewhere between Chiku & Turnip. It was sweek like Chiku and had a sharp smell and after taste of Turnip. I thought that it would taste somewhat like a sweet orange but it wasn't.
