      I’m from Indonesia and it’s common to see distinctively different kind of pears. There are pears that are significantly yellow even when ripe, they are also more round-shaped than the usual pear-shaped pear.

      Sometimes they can be more crunchy like apple.

      Tbh I don’t know the exact name, I just called them “yellow pear.”

        It could have been a Williams pear. They ripen from green to yellow. Some even have a pinky peach blush. They’re so soft and sweet and juicy when perfectly ripe.

        In the uk we commonly have Williams (yellow) or conference (green sometimes with a brown skin)
