Looks like a giant green strawberry
while having the chance was not aware of its existence
And now that I am I don't
It is looking like a tree who needs to grow in the bush as Jackfruitwhisperer mentioned
The inside looks a bit fibrous like Annona montana (at least from the photo)
about acquiring taste I wont count on similarities between the different palates
one of my former workers in Liberia was offering me every morning an Clove of garlic to chew as a snake to open the day
And The palm wine had also the taste of an old fart
surely that is bilateral experience whenever two cultures examine each others food
like old blue cheese for example
But I'm also convinced there must be big variation between those trees grown at different location far from each other isolated in the bushes
Investing time to grow a fruit the locals do not bother to eat is a fun
but not my kind of fun
Hi Amaqeq,
Most certainly there is a huge variation between trees grown in different locations...Mannii is found in Congo,northern Angola, Zambia, Ghana, Nigeria, Gabon and Cameroon. I wonder if they are also found in Guinea, Sierra Loene, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Togo, Benin or even São Tomé e principe
Yikes, a clove of garlic every morning
Garlic is also used to get the ''something'' back
