Hi, Catherine. I know you're an MNIST bad. Do you mind just going through what these are? Hi, Zach. So you've asked about these tropical fruits. So the first one is pomelo. So we actually get these from Vietnam. You can get them from China as well, but the ones from Vietnam, we rank, are so much better, and they're really much better, and we use the Nam Roy variety. If I just cut into it, you'll see that it has got a very, very thick skin, and a lot of Asian dishes use these. I particularly like them in an Asian salad, but they smell incredible and you can also zest the skin. You just cut the lovely citrus flesh away. A lot of people just eat them like grapefruit. I personally take the pith off them and then you can get really beautiful, segments that you can slice up further and just put them into your salad. So this is pomelo and onto rambutan, one of my personal favorites. They're grown in Thailand. They're grown all over Asia, but we bring them in from Thailand, and they good on a really, really tall tree. They are exactly like a lychee in flesh. I thought they're a little bit hairy. All you have to do is peel them, and you see the lovely white juicy flesh there. They've got a little stone inside, and then you just nibble around the stone. So really, a lychee with hairs. Okay. And the last one was kumquats. It's grown in South Africa, and they are basically a small little orange. I love them literally just sliced in half and put in a summer spritz or my gin and tonic. Best you can actually eat the skin. It's really tender skin. They're very citrusy. You can eat all the way through them, or you can zest them. So hopefully that helps, Zach's, and I hope you enjoy them.
