Three Cool Fruits A new spin on breaktime snacks… Try one of these…Durian fruit: This fruit is so stinky that it is banned on Asian public transport. Rambutan: Once the rambutan’s spiky exterior is peeled away, its deliciously sweet and sticky flesh is revealed inside, with a large woody seed in the middle. Kumquat: People may have heard rumours that these are just tiny oranges, but although they are citrus fruits, they are actually purposefully small. These are some awesome fruits, and I hope you try them. By Axielottie Children in Need! You will have heard that on the 18th of November it was CHILDREN IN NEED! WHAT IS IT?
