I love trying new fruits and vegetables, and today was no exception.
Problem is, the fruit I bought wasnt labeled, and no one in the store knew what it was. I dont have a pic of it yet , so ill try and describe it the best I can, and hopefully someone out there has an idea of what it may be.
First of all, the store caters to a Spanish community.
The fruit is about mango sized, some were a little bigger.
It was Brown in color, with a light sandpaper-like feel to the outside skin
Firm ( although it could have been unripe and maybe become softer in time)
The inside was orange in colore
consistancy was like an uncooked butternut squash
Smell (only when cut open) was like almond extract
Taste, like almond extract with a little bit of sweetness
Had that dry mouth after taste thing going on, like after a persimon
good luck
Ill try and get a picture up ( when i can find my cam, since i lost it somewhere)
