(Normal three, the skinny one in the front of the picture, and behind it I psycho baobab three)
When we where in Mombasa we got to witness one of Mother Nature’s wonders namely the baobab threes that grow in the area. These are old giants; threes with trunks bigger than some houses, barring “fruits” shaped like American footballs the size of a 2 year-old babies, psycho threes really.
Inside the baobab fruit there is a white fruit pulp that is quite sour but not too disgusting. The pulp is used in juice and there is also a type of candy sold in Mombasa that is made from the pulp with the baobab seeds still in it. The candy is colored red and a lot of sugar is added giving it a taste not to far from “gelehallon”.
(By the way a goat just moved in. I just love goats! Mam can I have a goat?)
