FL Gators: Oh yes they are. Forget their looks, the taste is delicious. I think they are also called pear avocado. They are very sweet. Love them. If you taste them, if you haven't, you would like it. I wonder if they have it anywhere in the US. Can't seem to find them here. |

LOL @ Gators Yes, I love those pears(ube). Never seen 'em here in the States. What they call 'pear' over here looks like Nigerian guava but the Nigerian one is sweeter. |

Which one be Ugh uugh, this is a rich delicacy enjoyed by many Naija tribes, home and abroad. Either cooked for some minutes in hot water or roasted, it's nice with boiled/roasted corn, or on its own. The taste is lightly flavored, plain but nice. |
