Thanks Wilson! I rarely find myself on the East side, but I’ll have to make a special trip out to Fossilman’s soon.

Damn, I just got skunked at Marina Farms, no seed spitting demo tonight. I am on the prowl though, I may have my farmer’s market mole pick some up in Santa Monica on Wednesday.

I’m crazy about them too! And I’ve been eating about 2 pounds of blueberries each day. From TJs!

Dear Jonah -

Does not compute. Please put together a photo-pictorial essay of your instructions. Especially the seed spitting part.

LOL! ;)

I just hand the bowl to my mom, wait about six minutes, and get a whole bowl of peeled lychees back. LOL!

Here’s my two second tip on peeling lychees, I’m sure there are other methods:

1. Squeeze the fruit slightly, to put some tension on the skin

2. Pierce the skin with your thumbnail to make a slit at least half way across the face of the fruit.

3. Put the slit side of the fruit in your mouth and squeeze the other end between your thumb and pointer finger.

4. The fruit and seed should pop into your mouth. Clean the fruit off of the seed spit it out.

Lychees are also best served cold, in my mind.
