This Leechi/Lychee is OK. Most fruits taste better when fresh.

Ethan
Came in frozen, good amount for the price. I hope they taste good.
Thao Ho
Very good, beyond expectations. Each one is very sweet and juicy. The core size is definitely smaller than that of Mexican lychees, and definitely larger than that of Feizixiao, but the thickness of the flesh is quite good. Although sweet, the taste is still not as good as good fresh lychees, but because it is very sweet, it is not much worse than fresh Mexican lychees. The key is that when there are no fresh lychees, it is a very good choice.

Frozen lychees are very fresh, small in size and very sweet

It’s sweet, but still not as delicious as the fresh ones…

These are frozen lychees, so you have to wait until they are thawed before you can eat them. The packaging looks pretty good!

This batch of sweet potatoes is quite good, not hard, and the main nodes are relatively long. Although the cut is a bit black, cutting off the black part does not affect the sweetness and crispness. The ones I bought before had too many nodes.

This time it was fresh enough. Three of them were very thin, but fortunately the skin was very thin and quite sweet. I picked them all up at once and froze them to eat slowly.
