ok, I admit, the name “breasts of chola” made it even more interesting for me to try this fruit! 😇 As if discovering a new fruit wouldn’t be enough incentive already! 🤷♂️🙄😝
You don’t need much imagination to understand why that name.

| Fruit quarters after breaking fruit apart, seeds after devouring the flesh, and the whole fruit |
The fruit has five large seeds inside, bedded in tasty, orange fruitflesh. To eat it, I find it easiest to tear off the stem, then score the skin twice all around, and then break the quarters apart. Then it’s easy to bite out the seed from the peel, and suck off the fruitflesh.
I can not describe the flavor, only can say it’s really nice. It’s a velvety consistency, is flavorful, and sweet but not overly so. Also doesn’t have much acidity.
To me, it’s a great little snack, when I’m feeling a little peckish, or just feel for a little sweet something…
