Tasting monstera's delicious fruit

Have you ever tasted the fruit from a Monstera???
@AwesomePlants $2.99 Monstera deal inspired me so thought I’d share my experience and post this interesting #FunFact since it’s probably not common knowledge (despite the name) that the Monstera Deliciosa β€œDelicious” produces edible fruits when mature in about 5 years time.

The fruit of the plant resembles a corn cob. The taste is like a pineapple + banana flavor (very tropical) with a custard like consistency.

Something for you Florida people to think about if you see some patches of wild Monstera πŸ€” Go fruit hunting!! You won’t find this in a grocery store and it’s pretty difficult to even buy online.

You can only eat a little at a time because of the way it ripens. Only the pieces that fall off of the Cobb are edible the rest are very bitter while green.
