Hello,
I need your help in identifying a fruit. These are its characteristics:
- It is found in Southern Nigeria;
- It's ovoid in shape - about 10mm by 8mm by 5mm;
- It has an outer thin shell which is very dark brown and somewhat velvety;
- When this shell is broken, it reveals a dry interior which has a seed
covered with a light-orange 'dusty' layer;
- When the seed is sucked, the light-orange layer dissloves away, revealing
a sweet and slightly sour taste and explosing the seed beneath (this is
light brown;
- The fruit usually occurs in bunches.
Thanks in advance,
Akin
