Caribbean Fruits & Produce

Absolutely loving Caribbean fruits and produce!! This week Shallom previously introduced as the Pineapple Man, shared a candy-like fruit known locally as Mamey or Sapodilla. Grown throughout the Caribbean and Central America, the produce is used as a main ingredient for commercial chewing gum. A genius idea for such a sweet treat.

A bountiful harvest awaited as we gathered pineapple, pumpkin and soursop to haul, load and take directly into town to sell at Bobby’s local market. Have a favorite Caribbean fruit or produce not mentioned? Please share in the comment section! We love to hear from you.
