Ooh. We get fresh fruit every Tuesday, and this week they were touting the persimmon, so I had a persimmon with my pear. It's an odd sort of thing. They don't really taste bad, but they don't have a lot of taste to them. And they have a weird aftertaste.
Depends on the type. What was the shape? It sounds like an underripe Hachiya one. I love them, but the nast of the underripe sent me to the arms of the Fuyu.
It is a Fuyu! But someone said it wasn't completely ripe.

They're usually pretty decent even if slightly underripe. You must have got a dud one! They're seriously awesome fruit, and when they're on sale, I buy a LOT of them.
Now, like my innocence...pie gone.
And, while it isn't pie, pineapple upside-down cake is a little bit of heaven.
Ooh, now I want to make one of those.
