Faqs

Q: Is the red flesh edible and sweet?
A: Absolutely! The red pigmentation (anthocyanin) is natural, edible, and often concentrated near the pit. It has the same sweet flavor as the white flesh and is a sign of its unique genetics.

Q: What does "clingstone" mean for eating?
A: The flesh clings tightly to the pit, so it doesn't slice away cleanly. It's best eaten out of hand by biting around the pit or cut into slices/pieces that are then removed from the pit, rather than trying to halve it neatly.
