They come in two varieties. We like the Fuyus? They are the shape of a normal sized tomato and are either orange or yellow color. They don't have to be soft for you to eat them. You can eat the skin. They taste kind of like a peach or a carrot. They're sweet. Lately I eat about five a day. I already ate four this morning. They're little. That's really all there is to say about Fuyus. [PS: If you want this to be more funny, and you are delirious like us, read it in the accent of a John Waters character, for that is the accent we wrote it in.]
uhh persimmons smell like sperm.

I have a tree. They're delicious.

A peach? A carrot? I'm pretty sure the bastard tastes like a leaf. I've only eaten half a persimmon then I threw the other half across the grocery store parking lot because it tasted so shitty.

i just had those a few days ago. you hipsters are amused by anything.

Seriously. They do have a slight aftertaste of semen. It's really weird. I like them, but too many starts to make you gag a little. It's a crunchy to soft texture that's sweet in a non-tart way. You have to cut off all the skin, and there's basically no seeds.
GAG.

The soft Hachiya ones are better. They are gooey and sweet and go well with yogurt.

They've got to be eaten ripe!!!
When they're ripe you can squeeze them to mush like you could with a ehhhmm I don't know... something very soft.
They taste like cinammon with red gummi bears then.
yummy.

persimmons are way too sweet you can literally feel the sugar granules in your mouth as your chewing this soft veiny, i'd imagine tumor-like, mass. i think they're gross.

THEY REALLY DO SMELL LIKE CUMM!!!!!! and they give you bad GAS!! ._. well...if you eat like 3 or more. haha most guys jack off so they would know what semen smell like ^.^ if yu dunno what cum smells like, eat a persimmon!! :D
Posted by: Asuka | 11/12/2007 at 02:18
no it is not persimmons tasting like cum but the other way around whatever you eat a lot of will make your cum taste/smell like it i know because a few days ago i ate a lot of really sweet almost almond tasting carrots and my girl friend told me my semen strangely tastes like a carrot almond mix hahaha
also goes for sweat have you ever noticed how you smell like pepper after eating lots of pakistani foods or other foods with lots of black pepper!?
Posted by: Kanu | 18/03/2008 at 06:23

Posted by: plore | 13/06/2009 at 09:21
i used to love these as a young child
and like i was eating one the other day and i was like there's a weird flavor/ smell to it and it made me kinda nauseous...and i thought about it and suddenly it came to me...it totally has that sperm smell like some people say it does.
i'm glad that i'm not the only one that thinks taht, i thought something was wrong with me at first
Posted by: lalala | 20/11/2009 at 06:24
I showed my husband that persimmons smell like cum, but only when you peel them. We cut another one in half, and it didn't smell like it until we started peeling it. Then I said, I'm going to google, persimmons smell like sperm, and here I am! LOL
Posted by: katmakiah | 12/12/2009 at 08:56
Somebody gave me an orange one at work the other day and I almost blushed. I couldn't believe it, when peeled anyway it absolutely smells and tastes like jizz.
It's really gross; I won't be having another one.

try boiling a peeled persimmon, the color of the liquid will be surprisingly murky white.
