The Cherimoya is a fruit that grows on a small evergreen tree. According to Wikipedia Mark Twain called the Cherimoya, “The Most Delicious Fruit Known to man”.
I tried one.
You scoop it out like an avocado.
It kind of breaks up into pieces with seeds. You need to remove or spit out the large hard seeds.
I don’t know if my fruit was a good representation of a typical Cherimoya or not but mine was sweet but mildly flavorful. It almost was like a creamy but fruity banana but sort of half strength in flavor and texture. Like if a banana and a citrus had a baby and the mother was the banana. The texture was light but also creamy but not as creamy as a banana.
The Cherimoya fruit is very similar in appearance and taste to the Guanabana Fruit I tried in Mexico.
