The passion fruit, native to South America, is a round to oval fruit with a soft to firm interior that is sweet and tart and surrounded by many seeds.
There are two basic types of passion fruit: yellow and purple. The yellow has a smooth thin rind while the purple has a think dark skin that is mildly poisonous.
