Delicious lychees have once again been reduced in lidls. Came down from £5.99 to £3.99p/kg, but now half the last price £1.99! Emptied a box from the shelf when I came across these :)

Is this because you usually buy tinned fruit? Lychee skin is always pinky red in my experience, it's the fruit when peeled that is white Can't think why you wouldn't buy fruit from Lidl? Pretty sure it will be the same as other places.

Its an exotic fruit. Comparing it to grapes or strawberries does it a huge disservice IMO.
Just buy 1 :smile: & try it!

I absolutely love this fruit, seriously if you are passing by try it, replaced mango as my favourite fruit. Shame there is no Lidl anywhere near me...

Aromatic flesh, not super sweet but they're still amazing. The flesh has a really meaty texture to it that is quite unique.

Never seen red lychees lol. This fruit is either amazing or rank depending on its quality and how ripe they are. I never buy fruit from lidl personally.

Apart from their grapes, I have no reason to fault their fruit in recent years.

i agree. I've never seen red lychee either. My granma buy it from the market and it's usually a pinky, dare I say, light maroon colour

I just wish hygiene was better at Lidl. Too many grubby, unwashed hands touching fruit/bakery items....

I wash all fruit and veg wherever they come from. You can also wipe clean or quickly rinse under a tap bread from lidl with thick crusts like the rye loaf they make. Then just leave to out dry.
