„The fruit has pale yellow flesh is very sweet. The taste is a cross between a pineapple and a banana and some detect a hint of mint. The tiny seeds embedded in a jelly-like center are edible. The thick, waxy skin is too tart to eat fresh but can be used in pickles or preserves. The white and pink flowers are also edible, having a sweet flavor reminiscient of cotton candy. They are often used to decorate cakes, pastries, or salads.“ http://www.gimcw.org/plants/Acca.sellowiana.cfm
