popo introduction

Popo is a fruit of the Banreishi family native to North America. It is also called Akebigaki because its appearance resembles a persimmon and its flesh and seeds resemble persimmons. Because the skin is thin, it is difficult to transport, and because it rarely appears on the market, it is said that it is a phantom fruit because it can only be obtained at the stock station along the coast. It tastes like a banana and mango and is very rich, and it's one of the delicious ways to eat it by scooping the pulp with a spoon. In addition to smoothies, ice cream, pudding, etc., are recommended.
