This is a very strange fruit. Kind of look like an apple with a very hard skin. Kind of like eating a fruit full of juicy sunflower seeds that you spit out the shell. The taste is sweet with a little bitter thrown in for good measure.
They are quite messy and time consuming to eat. But fun. If you have never had one, try one, at least once. I kind of like them.
We had a tree in our backyard when I was small- Love them!
Be careful though, the juice will stain your clothes :)
Had them when I was a kid..now I have to go out and get one!
