Saba senegalensis

[FlyingFoxFruits]

was on periscope messaging a fellow from Senegal...i asked him his favorite fruit...he said, "Madd".

has anyone tasted or grown this one?

i looked it up, and it seems interesting.

he also mentioned one called Oulue, or something like this, but i couldn't find any info, he said it makes your mouth all yellow if you eat it...but it's good.

Adam, did he mention something about Oulue as that thing they grind and use as a flour substitute? Or I'm prolly just confuzzled but I remember someone telling me something about Oulue or something that sounds similar as a flour stand in.

Like Carob (appearance and pods) but not exactly Carob like flavour. If not it just means I got things mixed up in my poor brain.
