I love to eat star apple.. Because it is very delicious and very yummy.. In our province we have star apple tree.. It has round,purple-skinned fruit that is often green around the calyx,with the star pattern in pulp.. Sometimes there is a greenish-white variety of the fruit.. The skin is rich in latex,and both it and the rind are not edible.. The flattened seeds are light brown and hard.. The fuits are delicious as a fresh dessert fruit;it is sweet and best served chilled.. how about you?? Do you love to eat star apple(caimito)??

It's great! Whatever the variety as long as it's ripe, it tastes great! You can eat it or make a ice cold juice out of it. Refreshing. Good day mhae!

This fruit is really delicious but you have to be careful in eating too much as it causes constipation. You have to drink lots of water afterwards to avoid perspiration during your quiet moments at the toilet.

I like caimito as well and I don't mind if its green or purple skin they both yummy for me. I like it with condensed milk and chilled! But I haven't eat it for quite sometimes now, because I'm out of the country and I can't get it here. Have a nice day.
