They are good, not sure I'd call them the most delicious ever though. They are in season here now, lots of them being sold on the street corners. I think they are called the Ice Cream fruit in english, is that right? The trees are enormous, at least the ones I see here, and that makes it difficult to harvest the fruit. If you let it drop it is smooshed, so you need someone agile to climb the tree and one of those buckets pickers to get the fruit. Generally they are picked while still hard and allowed to soften in the house. I'm kind of 'meh' about them, I much prefer mangos.
A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.
