Everything but Lemons

I gave up trying to remember the names of the fruits I'd never seen about 4 in. Like fish in Japan, there are fruit here that we don't even have translations for in English. I wonder why we don't import more of them.

Worth noting:

- Guanabana, because its my new favourite fruitjuice (giant, ugly, spiky green fruit on the outside);
- The small red onions have inbuilt mild peppery heat
- Quails' eggs really are 4p each.  
- (Sweet)corn comes in at least 4 different colours

But no, there really are no yellow lemons. Apparently they're the only thing you can't grow in Colombia. There isn't even a word for them.
