My son shares my fondness for things that have a very tart or sour flavour ("sou-ah" as he would say when he was younger). I prefer my oranges on the tart side; I love a nice tart caipirinha; I like berries when they're a little on the tart side; I even like those kid's candies like sour gummy worms and so on. I just had one of these things which is just about the most tart thing I've tasted (I keep a stash of them for when the urge for something tart strikes). What about you? Do you like it tart? Do you like it sou-ah?  Edited to correct spelling |

Yes, I like it that way, too. One of my colleagues brings me the unripe apples from her orchard.
And I was a major lover of "sour balls" as a child.

No, not tart or sou-ah  Maybe it's a guy thing? My boys all love sweets that are like that. |

"Dessert monsieur?", "Well, I wouldn't mind a little tart... "

It's been a long time since I've had a nice sweet tart. Actually I don't think I've ever had one.

I have a major jones for pulparindo in all its manifestations.
Fruit is frequently eaten here with chile, salt, & lime. It seems to bring out the sweetness and flavor.

I do like sour/tart tastes. unfortunately, most asian restaurant now serve a syrupy gloop marketed as "sweet and sour", which should be renamed "sweet and fruity sweet" to correspond to the taste obtained.

I agree that the sour seems to have been lost from "sweet-and-sour" so I avoid it like poison.
