We all called this fruit 'fruuit of frunt'.

Almond

African Almond

Somebody once told us the tree of this fruit we have in our compound. He said if the root gets to the foundation of the main building the head of the family will die. We did nothing though.

ShyBabe:

Almonds varys in sizes and colours, this fruit here is one.

This is clearly not the almond we eat. It's something else. Maybe a wild type

Mehh this fruit that year, it was called ebelebor, fruit, fruity.

It's either you're a rich brat or an Indomie generation.

Back in the day, after eating the succulent part of the fruit, we'd still munch on the hard inner shell, las las na stone we go use Scatter the shell to remove the very soft and sweet NUT.

But I never said it was almond. It's tropical almond. That's different from almond just like grapefruit is different from grape, pineapple different from apple and watermelon different from melon. It's just the name but it's not really almond.
