Cachi (kah-key) or "Japanese Persimmons" are a popular fall fruit in Sicily (though you can hardly consider daily temperatures of 25 degrees C as your typical autumn weather... Even the Sicilians are starting to get tired of the heat).To me they look like psychedelic tomatoes, more of a florescent pinkish orange rather than red. The taste isn't bad either... but I just can't get past the texture.
