This tropical fruit, fleshy five lobbed,sold on the cart, pale yellow-orange and pleasantly aromatic and tangy! When sliced in cross section a perfect star is formed. Carambola ( Averrhoa carambola) is eaten fresh or in fruit salads.....with salt and chilli powder!!

I love these fruits. A friend, in Cocoa Beach, FL had a tree in his yard and, every time I did a cruise from Port Canaveral, I'd stop off at his house and fly home to California with a huge bag of them.
