Re: what are these ?????
The one on the bottom left are Jujubes (Chinese Dates). Really popular with some Southeast Asians also, and Fresno is one of the places with a lot of Southeast Asian immigrants. They go crazy for crabapples too. Something about those fruit, which they usually pick unripe, they like to use and dip in fish sauce or whatever.
My mom just got a whole bag full of jujubes from a friend the other day. So they must be in season right now. I don't really understand it, its so bland and the texture is like Styrofoam.
