I came to know this fruit a couple of years ago when my dad brought one to the house for us to try. Some friends from Germany were there at the time and they were ecstatic! They had never seen something so exotic! I actually have a couple of pictures we took of the specimen that day. I’ll send the pictures to you, hoping you considering starting a picture gallery of “exotic Mexican fruits”. I’m sure you’ll think or other candidates. It’d be great to share them with the readers!

Strongly suggest for your reading "1491, New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus," By Charles C Mann, Vintage Books, Copyright 2005, 2006. The Boston Globe said, "Fascinating....A landmark of a book that drops ingrained images of colonial America into the dustbin, one after the other." And it does. Re: Found!

Strongly suggest for your reading “1491, New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus,” By Charles C Mann, Vintage Books, Copyright 2005, 2006. The Boston Globe said, “Fascinating….A landmark of a book that drops ingrained images of colonial America into the dustbin, one after the other.” And it does.
