Rick's Seasonal Produce

...and are also inedible. On arrival, they were beautiful. White mold developed after a week's ripening, however. Managed to salvage three bites of the largest, but now have a bad taste in my mouth from the third bite.

Suspect the cherimoyas were harvested too early to ripen properly; feel Rick should have been aware of that possibility and cautioned me to wait another few weeks to order the fruit. The first two bites were bland and slightly bitter; lacked the flavor and sweetness I'd come to expect from a cherimoya...may have been ruined as a result of the mold, however.

On the plus side, the cherimoyas were on my doorstep the day after their Tuesday shipment.

Have just left a voice mail for Farmer Rick. If he should return my call and make things right with this cherimoya order, will let the board know.
