It wasn't so much that the pluot was crisp on the outside. It didn't crunch as I bit into it, the way an apple does.
But the meat inside the skin was more like an apple texture than a plum or apricot texture. Apples are fibrous, but each fiber has body, hence a crunchiness as you chew. Think water chestnut versus bamboo shoot.
Re the durian: Or, next time I come to California, maybe it'll be for longer than a single week (which has been the pattern the last few times) and we can meet and you can treat me (if treat it is ...)
