Baby Kiwi / Kiwiberry / Hardy Kiwi

These fuzzless completely edible cousins of the kiwi are about the size of a large olive and sometimes have a reddish blush. Sweeter, and a bit juicier than a kiwi, they have a grape like texture and Kiwi/ melon/ black grape-type flavor. found at trader joes irvine ca photo by chris mathews.
