sapodilla
Tropical brown fruit
Sapodilla is a tropical American evergreen tree cultivated for its sweet, grainy fruit.
The fruit itself, also called sapodilla, has brown skin and flesh resembling a pear in texture, with a flavor often compared to brown sugar or caramel.
The tree's latex was once the primary source of chicle, used in chewing gum.
