People have been dying from this poisonous fruit for only a few thousand years.

I'm going to an Asian market later to buy this fruit.

OMG! Lychee is one of my favorite fruits. Only when you'd find a sweet one will it be very delicious. Yours may not be sweet. I didn't know such a fruit could grow in Florida. Oh, eat the meat inside but not the core/seed in the center.

The white people are missing out on a lot of delicious fruits, such as the aforementioned, longan, and countless of other Asian fruits (of which I'm not remembering the names).

Btw, this fruit is hella expensive in Asian markets in the U.S. because they are imported and fairly cherished. If yours are ripe and sweet, you can sell them to Asian markets for quite a good chunk of money. But if they are not and you'd like to know what they taste like, go to an Asian market and ask to buy them in a can (or fresh) and try them.
Durian ftw!
