I&#x27;m excited to try these! I love discovering new fruits.<p>In the same vein -- is there any website that catalogues all the fruits you can buy around the world? That documents all the varieties, together with which countries&#x2F;states&#x2F;cities you can find them in?<p>When I travel, discovering new fruits is one of my favorite parts. Like when I discovered the custard apple [1] in Brazil, it blew my mind.<p>And it would be really cool to have a list of all the fruits you could buy when you travel to make sure you don&#x27;t miss any. Or the fact that the article says tejocotes are sold in NYC -- when I&#x27;ve never come across them -- makes me wonder what other fruits are here that I also had no idea?<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Annona_squamosa" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Annona_squamosa</a>

Article tldr:<p>&quot;Authorities were worried that tejocotes could carry highly destructive fruit flies into the States, threatening domestic orchards. Soon, there was a black market for the golden fruits, due to their rarity and the effort it took to bring them over the border.&quot;

RIP 99¢ Only Stores<p>They always had tejocote, and at a great price. (Although not always fresh, which is the only way it was ever prohibited.)

Is that fruit related to yeni dünya?
