Inside the Mystery FruitGrowing in a pot decorating the side of the pool in Cancun was this odd fruit. Follow the link for related pictures. The plant had long thorns. The fruit was sweet with an oddly spiced note. What the heck is it?

The general shape looks somewhat persimmon-ish, but the ones I'm familiar with don't have that defined a seed region, and they grow on trees. You didn't happen to grab leaf pictures or anything, did you?

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
