So I found myself needing to make a grocery store run to see what caught my eye for the fruit/veg challenge today. Just as I was planning on eating something usual, I saw a package of figs out of the corner of my eye. I certainly don't go eating figs often and I've probably only eaten them raw a few times in my life.
When I got the chance I split the fig by hand and just ate the fruit and the seeds. I enjoyed the texture of the seeds popping in my mouth as I chewed. The only similar experience I could think of was when I tried some sushi with fish eggs. These particular figs weren't exciting as far as flavor goes and at over $5 for 7 figs I was a little dissapointed in the flavor and quality. My food diary is showing them at about 35 calories each. I just have the hope that there are many figs out there that will taste much better than these ones.
