This fruit has nothing to do with custard nor apple but it has this name This is one of my favourite fruits but it will only taste good if it has big 'eyes' When I say big eyes the fruit must be large and with few seeds. With difficulty, I found some the other days while I was out and saw this hawker selling them. I grabbed a few ofcourse at a cost and enjoyed them for a few days. Have you eaten custard apple?

I ate it once but I can't remember its taste. But its seeds are beautiful and then I burried one in my dad's house. Then it grows up and it is about two years already. It seems to grow well but it hasn't the fruits yet.

Is the taste sweet or sour? I would eat it if it tastes really good.
