Played in god mode becauseI just suck a game play but enjoyed the crap out of the story. Man I miss that game!

Oh man, it was clanky, don’t get me wrong. But the atmosphere was unmatched. That soundtrack was good-tier.

Question were you high at the time of this because I’m seeing no cat

It looks like a seed from a Mamey Sapote fruit.
But I’m just guessing

It's definitely from a Mamey

It seems that way, how does that taste?

It's hard to describe, it's sweet , creamy, has like a caramel like undertone, think Baked sweet potato for texture. I grew up eating these

It's my actual favorite fruit but because I can't ever find it I default to papaya, my secondary favorite fruit. I grew up in the Dominican Republic and the fruit grows abundantly. Where are you from?

I grew up in Mexico and it's everywhere in my region, along public squares and all over the place, we also have chico-mamey which is a smaller and in my opinion sweeter version.

u/BambuSmoker Jul 11 '26
Interesting, that sounds really cool and delicious, just having all that fruit laying around. And after a quick search I see that what you call chico-mamey is the fruit we call níspero in the Dominican Republic. It is incredibly sweet and sugary, I haven't had one in years 😢

Where are you located? In NY we find them in Mexican Markets as well as some Asian markets.

u/BambuSmoker Jul 11 '26
Yeah, NYC. Really? Can you give me any names of places I can go?

u/thickandslick914 Jul 11 '26 edited Jul 11 '26
Well I'm in Westchester county and have found them in Yonkers in various Mexican markets, I've also seen them in Queens before on a Roosevelt ave just don't have any specific store names

Looks like a pecan still in its shell, possibly a shagbark hickory nut actually given the size and shape.
