Chico Fruit
Jul 18th 2008greenbucksBlogging101 & Food Friday & Philippines & Photos
This is a chico fruit grown in my parents backyard. The bats love this fruit. It is called sapodilla or Manilkara zapota. I love to eat this after chilling in the fridge for a few hours. Tastes like brown sugar. Yummy for me though not for everyone’s taste.

greenbucks on 20 Jul 2008 at 3:23 pm 6It seems this fruit is not popular, even here in the Philippines. Bakit kaya, kasi lagi sabi “amoy chico” when one had a drink too many
greenbucks on 20 Jul 2008 at 3:24 pm 7This is a favorite fruit too, Jenn, even now
