Off to a Main Medellin Market – November 2018

Susan is an unofficial food history and food information buff. So it’s not surprising that she went on a tour to learn about and taste exotic Medellin fruits. Diana, from Real City Tours, led the group of 7 tourists through the winding pathways of the Minorista Market to see, feel, and taste 14 mostly unfamiliar fruits. And the tour ended with a delicious smoothie with personal choices of fruit combinations. A great way to spend a couple of hours!

Avocados come in regular, large, and extra large sizes in Medellin Yes, a hammer really is the best way to open algarroba. Susan’s least favorite fruit from the tour. Plan to get juice all over your hands and face when you eat zapote. Lulo is most commonly served as a juice rather than eaten by itself.
