Never heard nor seen this fruit until 31may 2019, when a child gave me some as a token of appreciation; and I have been alive for over 50 years.The taste is like a fat pork(coco plum).

I am living in Berlin Germany ,and in all my years this is the first time that i have hear of this fruit,it is probably to be found in only certain areas of Barbados ,but i am glad to see this fruit through using the Internet ,I think it should be cultivated more.The lady Anna mentioned that it tastes like "Fatpork" coco plum I would really like to try it.

i grew up eating this in Lagos, Nigeria-we had a tree behind our house. It was so, so refreshing! Haven't eaten it now for almost 40 years. p.s selected Cuba as only Carribean countries listed

Introduced to the island by the Taiwanese in the early 2000s . The tree is easy to grow and produces fruit in under 5 years
