If that’s the name of the fruit, why wouldn’t it be marketed under that name?
The kiwi fruit sold as "red kiwi"

I mean it sounds like OP maybe didn’t know that. 'sides it sets an expectation that the majority of the interior would be red, rather than the opposite

Was it 80% off by any chance?

I should post about “red delicious” apples being red but not delicious

Then someone would be disappointed that it doesn’t taste like radishes

“Addressed”
But really, why the heck would one want a communist kiwi?

BRB, taking my ruby red kiwi experience to the next level

It's attractive, though.

I’d call it butthole kiwi, but that’s probably why I’m not a fruitnamist

It’s a fucking scam. Golden kiwi actually is slightly different from green, this shit, not so much.

Scam? Its fucking red, right there in the image!
Only thing mildly infuriating here is that op posted this

I had a passion fruit the other day and I’m still depressed wtf fruit marketing

I think those look sick. Do they taste a bit like strawberries?

It tasted good, but I don’t think I would have been able to distinguish the taste from a “golden” kiwi

Most pictures I’m finding online of these look exactly the same. I’m even seeing produce boxes with pictures on the front of the inside of the fruit.

Yeah it’s only mildly infuriating if it’s false advertising
