Fruit Of The Spirit Or The One Where Jeff Eats A Persimmon

Ever eaten a persimmon? Honestly - I didn't even know what one was today, except a vague recollection that it was some type of citrus fruit. My new roommate (I have 1 until the beginning of January when a different one comes, and a second one 1/2 of the week) Vladimir introduced me to them tonight. They have a fairly mild taste, chew like a ripe peach, and leave a pithy feeling in the mouth that dries the cheeks and makes the teeth feel gritty. All the same a cool experience and one to notch into memory.
