About Mamey sapote
Wikipedia Article About Mamey sapote on Wikipedia

The mamey sapote (Pouteria sapota) is a fruit common in many Latin American countries and widely enjoyed by Cubans living in Cuba and south Florida. It is eaten raw out of hand or made into milkshakes, smoothies and ice cream.

The fruit's texture is creamy and sweet. To tell when a mamey sapote is ripe peel off a fleck of the skin to see if it is pink underneath.

The mamey sapote is related to other sapotes such as the abiu and canistel but unrelated to the black sapote and white sapote
