Well, good news… The amount of fruits we have no name for is insane in tropical regions. There’s trees that just casually make candy pods, like those little jello fruit cups that used to be popular. There’s so many with unique flavors, and even more that are vaguely similar
There’s definitely something that tastes like a creamy apple, there’s too many fruits out there for that not to be a thing. Nature likes to chemically mix and match
Oh and as far as the toxins, you’ll get a straight up chemical burn if you touch the seed pods. Usually they use tools to pull off the shell and roast it, which can lead to a warm raw cashew when you bust it open
You can eat the fruits without that, but you have to be careful to keep out the caustic oils. Cooking it is probably just safer
…a creamy apple? It’s closer to a bell pepper but more dry IMO
I’ve never tried, so just repeating what Ive heard. Is it just a shell then, no flesh like an apple?
Yeah, I’ve never eaten it raw, but cooked it was an empty shape like a sliced pepper. It was good, but creamy apple is wild as a description
updated my initial post, thanks
Kinda disappointed. I really want to taste a creamy apple now
Also I think you’re not meant to eat it raw becausr of some toxins?

But I want it nowwwwuh
Here you go, sugar apple meets the description
oh I’ve had custard apple before, and not been totally blown away by it. I forget why. Maybe because it tastes more musty than custardy?
Thanks anyway!
