βHave you ever peeled a perfect-looking lychee only to find weird, dark, gritty specks near the stem? Ever wondered what they are, and why that lychee sometimes tastes… off?
This is the tragic tale of a lychee that let its guard down. The culprit is a tiny moth, the Lychee Fruit Borer, that lays its eggs on the unsuspecting fruit. The larva then burrows inside, not to eat the delicious flesh, but to devour the base of the stem! And those little black specks it leaves behind? Well, let’s just say it’s the larva’s… “droppings.”
So next time you enjoy this sweet summer treat, you’ll know exactly what you’re looking at!
