What is this strange fruit?
先日、近所の家の前に育っている果物を見ました。次には、なくなってしまいました。なんの果物ですか、だれか知っていますか。
One day I saw these fruit growing outside a neighbor’s house. When I went back to get a second look, it was gone. Does anyone know what it is?

It seems to be Chinese Quince, かりん in Japanese.
Thanks, Minoru. I think you’re right. Have you eaten this fruit?
I haven’t yet, but some people make liquor with karin, and people says that karin are good for throat ache.
Definitely かりん．I don’t think anyone eats them as is? but quince jelly is delicious.
