January 26th, Day 618: Cocona

Fruit Info: Native to the Andes mountains of South America, there isn’t too much to say about this fruit. Solanum sessiliflorim produces a type of berry that is, well, uninteresting. When ripe it is usually a red orange or yellow color, and it is also occasionally cultivated for human consumption.

Fruit Tier: D

January 28th, Day 620: Bitterball

Fruit Info: Solanum incanum, is another close relative of the tomato. This one is also referred to as bitter tomato, bitter apple, and thorn apple. If you couldn’t figure out from those names, this fruit has a notably bitter taste to it. It is also native to Sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East.

Fruit Tier: B

January 29th, Day 621: Silverleaf Nightshade

Fruit Info: Considered a weed in some northern regions of the United States, and just a native inhabitant of southern regions, Solanum elaeagnifolium has a large geographic region it is native to. This region consists largely of the southern parts of North America and lots of Central America. It is also endemic to the Middle East which is odd.

Fruit Tier: C

January 31st, Day 623: African Eggplant

February 1st, Day 624: Fosberg

Fruit Info: With the s scientific name Solanum cheesemaniae, today’s fruit has nothing to do eith cheese. Nothing. It’s super disappointing and a waste of a phenomenal name. It’s just a tiny tomato. Lame.

February 2nd, Day 625: Aquatic Soda Apple

Fruit Info: This fruit grows in the wetlands around Florida and is tolerant to a limited amount of flooding. I guess that’s why it has Aquatic in the name. Otherwise uninteresting

Fruit Tier:C

February 3rd, Day 626: Yellow Fruit Nightshade

Fruit Info: Today’s fruit has some of the worst grammar I have ever seen in a Wikipedia article. It was actually horrible. What little I made sense of, and seemed believable, was that it is cultivated around the Himalayas and some parts of East Malaysia, Polynesia, Australia and more. Additionally the fruit is possibly poisonous so consume with caution.

Fruit Tier: D

February 4th, Day 627: Nakati

Fruit Info: We have another interesting fruit today. Solanum aethiopicum goes by names such as Ethiopian Eggplant, Mock Tomato and Bitter Tomato. It gets these names because supposedly the fruit looks like a combination tomato and eggplant (it looks more like a pumpkin if you ask me). Often the leaves of the plant take a priority eat over the fruit because the leaves have better nutritional value.

Fruit Tier: B

Fruit Info: Today we've got the Ice Cream Bean! It looks like some weird bug and to go with the name, tastes like vanilla ice cream. It's got some good sources of protein and like most fruits, is quite good for you.

Fruit Tier: S
