Date: April 21, 2009 12:30AM 5 grams isn't that unusual for a fruit of that size, is it?
I love cherimoyas, too. I haven't had them much. They don't ship well, and I don't live in a cherimoya part of the world. Re: cherimoyas

Date: April 22, 2009 02:04PM Flipperjan - Tesco had them in late summer last year. Also try 'ethnic' markets, eg they have them in Reading where I am right now. Also some branches of Waitrose (though not mine). Re: cherimoyas

They have a creamy, custardy, and juicy texture. Re: cherimoyas

Date: April 23, 2009 09:18PM Debbie - I find it very difficult to patronize Tesco. The nearest one is 45mins away anyway so I rarely go there. Sadly our Waitrose did not supply them last year. Re: cherimoyas

Date: April 23, 2009 10:18PM I never see them here. I had never heard of them before a few years ago.
If I do happen to see them, how do I know when they are ripe? or a good one? Re: cherimoyas

Date: April 24, 2009 09:02PM I've been wanting to try this. Seems all the exotic fruits, besides rarely available are extremely expensive. May be worth it if it's as amazing as my favorite, Mamey Sapote. Haven't had it in so long.
Hmmm...just read the pear comparison. I have never liked pears on their own. Only in a raw dessert. Oh well, gotta try it at least once.  Simple Raw Recipes & Health Tips Re: cherimoyas
