Where would I find this interesting fruit?

Ha! I’ve heard of ugly fruit but not angry fruit…
Grocery stores catering to Central or South American populations. I don’t know if Mexican supermarkets would have them.
Reading between the lines, this just comes across as one of those cure-all superfoods like you see on infomercials. But if you’ve really got your mind set on it, well good luck finding it.
Thanks.
Interesting! It looks like a cross between an avocado and a honey mango.
Yes, that’s what I’m reading. If i find it, I will post again.
When I lived in Queens, NY, I lived not too far from Jackson Heights, which has a huge South American population. I used to see lucuma juice, smoothies, ice cream, etc. at the local cafes, particularly ones which were specifically Colombian or Ecuadorian. You’re in NJ, right? (I believe in the town I grew up in too.) Then Jackson Heights is an easy road trip away.
Yes, monmouth county NJ. Very helpful thank you.
This looks like a relative of the indian chikoo, which is available frozen at indian stores.

We used to order the lucuma ice cream each time we went to Costanera restaurant, a Peruvian restaurant in Montclair, which unfortunately closed. It was so good. It tasted like butterscotch.
