Although he was skeptical, Altan Yisu still ate one. After all, the red color was truly tempting.
He thought that this fruit would be sour since it looked similar to the wild berries he found before. Unexpectedly, while there was a hint of sourness, it was not overwhelming. The taste was refreshing, as it was sweet and sour.
Noticing his delight, other grassland tribes' people also came over. Each of them took one of the cherry tomatoes and tried it.
When Altan Yisu regained his composure, he asked, "Young lady, this is a fruit?"
Yao Zhi nodded and explained, "It's a fruit, but can be used as a vegetable. You can use it to make a soup or stir-fry it with eggs. The sourness it adds to the dish is refreshing and can improve the appetite."
"Can other vegetables be eaten raw, too?" he asked again.
"Cabbage, cucumber, and carrot can be eaten raw, but carrot tastes better after being cooked."
After she said this, Yao Zhi washed a cucumber and handed it to him. "Try it."
