One of my all time favorite fruits are sapotes--an amazingly delicious tropical fruit that are often referred to as "custard apples" because of their extraordinary smooth/sweet white flesh. You almost never see them in a grocery store outside of California--even in specialty stores. I used to pay a fortune to order them from a company called Diamond Organics but they went out of business. Fortunately, during a recent web search, I came across a great company called South Coast Organics in Goleta, California. The owner, Jim McKeon, sent me a box of about 30 for only $45.00 (including the shipping) and they were fabulous. I just ordered another box. If you have never tried them, do so today! Jim's website is www.southcoastorganic.com. If you have great foods or products that you have discovered, please share them with me! (By the way, there is another type of sapote called a "black sapote" or "chocolate sapote" that I believe are grown in Florida. My wife, Wanda, loves them, but I prefer these.
