Elaysia is known for it's delicious local fruit. When comparing the fruit from Earth one can consider the most common Elaysian fruit to be a massive hybrid of Earth fruits. Clòimh Mhilis Meas, or more commonly cotton candy fruit, is the size of a grapefruit but with the skin like an orange. This outer peel is great for jerky or making a candy out of. On the inside the fruit has a flesh that makes a bowl on the inside. This flesh is green, sweet, gummy like and shreds well like you see with coconut. This flesh is great to eat by itself or shaved on top of ice creams. Inside this bowl of fruit flesh you have the seeds. These seeds are the size of grapes but have the texture of tapioca balls. The flavor of these seeds are a mix of grapes and lime. Most make a wine out of these seeds.<ref> [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sb118-ops/vU8a8uh5sjI Elaysian Food in ⅛ gravity], Lt.
