以下是小编为朋友们带来的饮食文化之新奇水果，下面小编为朋友们带来的新奇水果是菠萝莓，一起来看一下这种新奇水果的新奇之处吧。

一种外形像白色草莓，味道尝起来却和菠萝相似的新品种水果将开始在英国销售。

一位零售商说：“一种外形看起来像白色的草莓但是味道尝起来像菠萝的夏季水果明天将开始销售。”

据报道，这种新奇的水果被称为“菠萝莓”(pineberry)，它外形与草莓十分相似，只不过果肉是奶白色的，表面分布着均匀的小红点，与草莓的基因构成相同。不过尝起来味道与菠萝“出奇的”相似。

这种新型水果将在接下来5周应季的时间内，在全英国45家超市销售。

这种“菠萝莓”源于南美洲，原本是一种野生莓果，如果不是7年前荷兰农民将其带到欧洲种植并贩卖，为其成功打开销路，它可能已经灭绝。

到4月之前，一盒125克的菠萝莓售价为 2.99英镑(合约人民币31元)。其后同等规格的菠萝莓售价将为3.99英镑。

“White strawberry”that tastes like pineapple to go on sale

A new summer berry that looks like a white strawberry but tastes like a pineapple goes on sale tomorrow, a retailer said.

The pineberry is white and covered in red pips and has the same genetic make-up as the common strawberry but with a flavour and ''extraordinary'' smell closer to that of the pineapple, Waitrose said.

The supermarket will sell pineberries in 45 stores across the UK for the next five weeks while they are in season.

They are grown in glasshouses, turning from green to white and are ripe when the seeds turn dark red.

Nicki Baggott, Waitrose fruit buyer, said: “Pineberries offer our customers the chance to add a new fruit into their diet and the berry's bright appearance can add an unusual decoration to sweet dishes. ”

“As the summer unfolds we won't be surprised to hear that our customers are inviting their friends over for pineberry pavlovas, punch or serving them up with yogurt for a lighter alternative.”

A 125g punnet of pineberries will cost £2.99 until April 13 and then sell for£3.99.
