New Food Experiences

Dan and I are always excited when we can try new foods. Recently we tried a few new things. First, we tried a fruit we've never had before.  These are lychees. They crack open to a soft white center about the consistency of a grape, which surrounds a pit. We loved the unique and delicious flavor!

The second new item was basically a hot dog. On a few occasions, we had seen these for sale at the grocery store. It is a hot dog-like sausage called virsli, paired with a pastry. Dan and I had joked about these because they are neither refrigerated nor hot.  We mostly wanted to try it as a dare to each other. Surprisingly, it actually turned out to be pretty good.
