Tip of the Day,
some jaboticaba varieties can be eaten early, when full sized, but still green. Such varieties include, but aren't limited to, Myrciaria trunciflora, and Myrciaria cauliflora (red jabo especially), I assume M. phitrantha and M. aureana exhibit this feature to some degree...although I've never eaten one.
This can mean the difference between having fruits to eat, or a pile of scraps to look at, left by rats. I've learned to always harvest the fruits early, especially if you want to make sure to get all of the seeds. Even though animals usually leave them behind, they're much harder to recover, once they've been removed from the fruits.
