@miamifruit: Star Apple aka Caimito or Milk Apple is in peak season in South Florida! 🤩 What do you call this fruit where you’re from? ✨Star apple (aka caimito) is named after the star shape found inside the pulp when you cut it in half (around its equator). ✨It is also called milk fruit for its milky looking juices that leak out of the fruit when it is cut open. ✨In Sierra Leone the fruit is called Bobi wata or breast milk fruit. In Vietnamese it is called Vú sữa which translates to breast milk. ✨Caimito is native to the Isthmus of Panama. It has spread to the Greater Antilles and the West Indies and is now grown throughout the tropics, including Southeast Asia. ✨The star apple we offer is grown in South Florida. They’re currently on sale at miamifruit.org 🌈 #starapple #caimito #cainito #vusua #milkfruit #bobiwata #tropicalfruit #miamifruit #fruit
