it may be good for some but it wasn't edible for me the flavor was interesting on the knodof good oside however it didn't match it's texture and that made me feel sick another thing where would there be a recipe in midieval times specifically for"harlots and ruffians" that used tropical fruit? the commoners couldn't read books weren't mass produced as this would have to be and fruit spoiled to easily!
