what is vomit fruit

The vomit fruit, also known as noni, is the fruit of the Morinda citrifolia tree. It is called vomit fruit due to its pungent odor, which is often likened to vomit or cheese. The fruit is native to Southeast Asia and Australasia and is widely cultivated in the tropics. It is oval in shape, reaches 10–18 centimeters in size, and emits a strong smell while ripening. The taste of the fruit is described as putrid and vomit-like, with hints of funky cheese. Despite its off-putting odor and taste, the fruit is consumed for its purported health benefits and is used in traditional medicine. It is also used in eating challenges, and supplements made from noni are sold in various formats, such as capsules and juices
