Vienna, Austria has this big market called the Naschmarkt. It has some small shops but for the most part it is all outdoor vendors selling fruits, vegetables, spices, sweets, tea, fish, meat and more! It is always fun to walk through the Naschmarkt and when I spotted these giant figs I knew I had to have a few of them. I love fresh figs! We had a fig tree in Orlando that grew from a piece of fig tree we dug up in Lake Talquin, Florida. That tree grew so big in Orlando and we always looked forward to our fresh figs. We did have to keep an eye on them as they got big and beat the squirrels to them!
I once read something that said figs were nature’s perfect fruit and you could live on them!
Look at these beauties:
