Cherimoya Anyone?

Have seen them around for several years, but wasn't keen on trying one. So today as I swing by the supermarket in the neighbourhood on my way home from work, picked up 2 from the shelf as i felt like I had a crave for 'Teab Barang', one of my favourites, and this fruit happens to have similar look.
Got home, put away the shopping bags and started to cut one of' em up. It's definitely 'Teab Barang', so I thought. But after one bite, the taste was so weird, no sour sensation as I expected of. Somehow, I managed to finish the whole fruit though it's only the size of the fist.



I really miss all the fruits back home, especially, those with combo of sweet and sour taste. Dad usually said those who had sour-taste-bud were extremely pigheaded. Is it true or just a myth? It's probably true to a certain extent. But I just couldn't figure out if there was a cause and effect relationship between the two.
Anyhow, I dont think I can finish the second one tonight. At this instance, I don't know if I like it. I might do after a few attempts :) just like avocado & feijoa, I hated the fruits when first tried but have become two of my favourites now.

Look like this year home trip is not going to happen since mom and dad are coming over late December - something to look forward to. So, planning to take holiday in April. I know it's gonna be scorching hot but that doesn't deter me from making this trip. It's going to be my first real Khmer New Year at home in 8 years. Yep 8 big fat years!!!
