The link that Cheetah so nicely provided told me that the one I was referring to is the Ataulfo variety. They're more expensive than the others, and are rarely available out of season. :-)

I wish I was closer to the tropics for fruit - I know that many of these things are delicate and don't survive long-distance travel. One day, I'll have to travel - but to the warmer countries instead of always to the colder ones!

mexico is the best place to enjoy all those tropical fruits and sun I guess... I read so many wonderful that we have here in Indonesia, also native and origins to Mexico or from south to centra America
