Haha I'm not kidding, we eat them with salt (and a bottle of water of course), if you ever come to Colombia, you will never see a grosella red, only green.
ceherzog
yes, they are...but I recommend you wait until they are nice and red.
ceherzog
Oh my! I can't imagine eating them green. I have a cultivar with almost black fruit that is sweet with very little acidity.
Ariana
Beautiful! Are the edible?
Carolina
I love them!!! We call them "grosellas", but I have never seen them red, just green. Really acid.
ceherzog
The fruit will turn red when ripe.
