My favorite fruit in the world is Lychee's. We had it in Taiwan and when we moved to the US, since it is a tropical fruit, we never had it there.
Now that I live in Singapore, Lychee's are available only in the summer months May thru July. Four weeks or so ago, I bought some lychees. I think I ate half a KG by myself.
A week later, I come down with Shingles. Lychee's in Chinese is suppose to be very heaty and according to Chinese, one gets Shingles because the body is very heaty. Hmmmm.
I bought another half KG of Lychees today.

Well, the good news is you won't get the shingles again.
You can't get Chicken Pox twice but there is nothing that says you can't get Shingles twice
If it's worth the risk of another round of shingles, I say eat the lychee!
