it's just like peach. they're called drupes, which are fruits.

Answer 2

a lychee is a fruit and very delicious, peel off the bumpy pink skin and enjoy the fruit, it has a smooth little brown stone inside of it.

You can also buy canned lychees and lychee juice - my kids love them!

They are not a nut at all.

Answer 3

It is a fruit not at all related to a nut, you could still have an allergy to it, but it isn't in the nut family.

Answer 4

Fruit!

Answer 5

Lychee is a fruit.Lychee nuts is a name that usually refers to dried lychee fruits but is not really a nut. A true nut is actually the edible seed of certain fruits. Lychees are much tastier when eaten fresh; however, when you can't get fresh lychees the dried lychees are a great alternative.
