Indian Java Plum or Jamun takes me back to my childhood days. There was a Jamun tree just beside our home and we (me, my brother and my cousins) used to go and carry Jamun in our skirts, handkerchiefs. Haha, those were amazing days. Sigh! What nostalgic! Do you have such memories too? Comment below and I would love to hear your stories.
P.S: How many have you played the game – Is my tongue Purple yet? We all have eaten Jamuns and then asked our Mom/Friends to see whether our tongue has changed its color into purple or not?
Just for the record, I still do it! Haha!
I absolutely love Jamuns as they are sweet and tangy in taste. I like to eat Jamun which are overripe, put some salt and chaat masala and enjoy them. One of my favorite fruits of all the time.
