can imagine you scrunching up your face, digging into those sour pulps!
i'd take the finished product (desserts) only, thank you.
J2Kfm, desserts over at FBB. Here it's the naked pulps or nothing.
I scrunch my face too. Easier way of consuming it is to make it into a syrup and drink it. The fragrance is so powerful that it lingers long after it's all consumed. Nice.
