The WIsdom of Fruit - Cherimoya / Custard Apple
✨"What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals." Henry David Thoreau✨
The journey is way more important than the destination...for it never ends and we never stop growing.
🍏Custard Apple / Cherimoya: Thought to be native to Ecuador, Colombia, Peru and Bolivia (where it still grows uncultivated) and then moved to Central America. Now grown all over the world, these beauties were grown in Spain. This, often heart shaped fruit has a sweet yet slightly tart flavour, a mix of banana and pineapple with hints of apple and pear all inside a white creamy flesh...it's like eating a pudding sorbet straight from the tree.⚡️
Mark Twain called this fruit "the most delicious fruit known to men".👍⚡️Used in traditional Mexican medicine for its anxiety-relieving, anticonvulsant and tranquillising properties. The fruit has an ability to manufacture GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a neurochemical known as "the euphoric amino acid" 😁.
