starfruit
Five-pointed tropical snack
Starfruit is a tropical fruit with a distinctive shape—when sliced crosswise, the pieces form five-pointed stars.
The yellow-green fruit has a waxy skin and crisp, juicy flesh with a mildly sweet-tart flavor.
Native to Southeast Asia, starfruit is eaten fresh, used as garnish, or added to salads and drinks: The cocktail came with a slice of starfruit on the rim.
Also called carambola.
