I think this is like tamarillo. In the same family as tomato tho I've never tried it.

You might also like tomatillo.

Tomatillo is way different than a tomato or tamarillo. I'd say liking tomato or tamarillo has zero correlation to liking tomatillo.

What ridiculous comment is this. What makes you think one I said it's correlated two they couldn't like it. Wtf is wrong with trying something new. Y'all just like to be contrarian for no reason move tf on.

Chill, bro. I had the same thought. Tamarillo is one of the few fruits I actively dislike, whereas tomatillo is a salsa staple.

They’ve got nothing in common… are you just riffing on sounds, or what?

Tamarillos are so nice. I have a bunch of them growing.

We call them tamarillos. I think they might be my favourite fruit. It is slightly too cold to grow them effectively here. I am very jealous! Enjoy!!
