I opened one of the little cake packages for my breakfast. I chose the one labeled "Lichi Fruit".
I remembered that fruit from my trip to China in 2007. I went back and found one of my (hundreds of...) market photos. The Lichi fruit can be seen in the top left side of this photo:
It was quite nice - definitely no resemblance to our fruitcake. Just like a rich shortbread crust filled with firm/not-so-sweet preserves. Not exactly something I'd want much of.....but neat to experience other culture that way.
