These alien looking things are called Soursops and kind of taste like a sour green apple with a chewy custard like flesh. Delicious! Also, lots of mangos and lychee poppin' up at the farmers markets and roadside stands. Don't know how I missed this earlier. In South American they're called Guanábanas. At one time they were my favorite fruit, but that was a long time ago when I could get them fresh. They have aphrodesiacal properties you know. On a hot day there is nothing quite as pleasant and refreshing as a tall, icy glass of fresh guanabanada.
