Donut White Peaches in Korean

Monday, August 10th, 2009

More fruit with cute names at HK Super. After the dinosaur egg plums, I encountered these donut white peaches, which are not that uncommon a sight in Southern California. They’re simply called doughnut peaches or white peaches. On the sign, the name was translated literally into Korean as 도넛백도복숭아 (donut white peach).

Donut White Peaches

99 cents per pound. Product of USA

You can see them below the mangoes and pistachios in the picture above. (Click to enlarge.)

Don’t ask me why the grocery clerks arrange the produce like that — the display works aesthetically. Maybe there’s a tradition of serving certain nuts with certain fruit that I’m not aware of. Give me a snack bar.
