A Tasty Surprise

I find it interesting that there are still SO MANY FRUITS I have not even heard of, let alone tasted!!! I had one of those experiences tonight at a friend's. She served SAPOTE !!! Do you know what that is? Well, I had never heard of it before.

Apparently, it is native to eastern Mexico and Central America. It is an ovoid drupe, 5–10 cm in diameter, with a thin, inedible skin turning from green to yellow when ripe, and an edible pulp, which can range in flavor from bland to banana-like to peach to pear to vanilla flan. The one I had, tasted like pear!!! INTERESTING...

Life is full of pleasant yummy surprises. ;) Thank you Gole joon <3
