This fruit is a star-apple, as a child I ate these by the dozen, especially during the summer time. My grandmother would tell me “you are going to bind your behind eating all the way down to the skin of that star-apple” I am not bind yet, lol!

I went to the fresh market yesterday and saw these on sale for a whopping…….$7.99 lb. I purchased three, which cost me just under $4. To think, when I was in Jamaica as a child I could have gotten these fruit just about any corner of the Island I was, free of cost.

One thing was for sure, if someone told you that you are, “mean like a star-apply”, it was an indication that you are REALLY mean. It was believe that these fruits do not fall off the tree like other fruits do easily, they would stay on the tree and dry instead of falling off.

Don’t be as mean as the star-apple. #LiveLoveLaugh
