One of our tastiest tropical fruits is also our most dangerous. The Monstera Deliciousa, known as the "fruit salad fruit" combines nature's most delicious flavors into one fruit. However, if you eat the flesh before it ripens your lips and tongue will burn for hours!
The monstera deliciousa plant is used throughout sough Florida as a decorative landscaping feature and most people have no idea there's a delicious fruit right outside their window.
Most people think I'm joking when I offer a cup full of this fruit, especially when the see it's intimidating shape. Then they take a bite, ask for more, and often ask for some to take home.
I hope you get a chance to try a ripe monstera deliciousa some day. You'll love it!
