Guatemala has these same fruits, and more.

a diet heavy in Colombian fruit leaves the consumer completely invulnerable to constipation.

So does having a glass of the water.

“Adventurous travelers quickly find their diets full of diverse flavors and their stool full of fiber in this gastronomic and gastrointestinal paradise.”

This is truly one of the strangest things I’ve read since Carlos Castenada or the script of the movie Popeye.

There have to be powerful drugs involved here somewhere.

“Gastrointestinal.” My word for the day.

I've got to say, this is the first travelogue touting stool benefits that I've ever encountered.

Hopefully, it is not too difficult to find a convenient toilet while traveling.

... and amuse yourself while indisposed by searching for undigested, small black seeds from dragon fruit.

The dragon fruit isn’t particularly strong-flavored, a bit like a sweet, mild kiwi, but it is ever so creamy, filled with small black seeds that give it a nice crunch and are evidently indigestible.

This I do know: in Colombia, you could eat a different fruit every day of the year, and not exhaust the variety. Some of them, I didn’t care to try.

Liberals truly have no idea, whatsoever, what are appropriate boundaries.

They're like six year olds.

And Brazil, and Thailand, and Viet Nam, and Mexico, and Spain, and .......Read The Manual of Tropical and Subtropical Fruits, Wilson Popenoe. It will surely be an eye opener. Consider the Jaboticaba, a fruit tree where the fruit arises from the stalk of the tree, not from the branches. I guarantee not one in 500, 000 freepers has ever tasted a Jaboticaba fruit.

With his unnatural interest in his own bowel movements, this guy should have his own Travel Channel show: ‘Top Ten Spots For Explosive Diarrhea.’

“Next week we travel to Tijuana, BC and sample BBQ cooked right off Avenida Revoluccion next to a medico office: goat meat seared on a trash can lid brazier with yummy Mysterioso sauce.”

One of our NC guys lives in Colombia part time. He’s posted pictures of the fruit markets ... amazing stuff.
