Called Chirimoya in spanish, this has been my preferred fruit during my childhood in Spain.
Here is a picture of the last one for the season as seen in my garden this morning, a late bloomer since the season is a month over! As a bonus this one is huge ( bigger than a big orange )!
How to eat it
The best is to wait a day or two at room temperature for the fruit to ripe (like the avocado, it should be slightly soft to the touch). Then cut it in half, and eat big chunks with a spoon, spitting the seeds ( careful, those are really tough).
Taste
This fruit really tastes like heaven on earth, it's sweet but not too sweet, and it seems like a mixture of banana, pear, strawberry and mango.
Health
In recent studies, it has been found the Chirimoya has, among it's many health benefits, anti-cancerous properties. Here i found a site that describes what amazing benefits you can find in it.

Hi windforce, do you have Discord? I wanted to talk with you regarding your witness efforts and simply getting to know you since we are both witnesses.

My discord: windforce#7675
My witness efforts, as stated in my original witness thread, are mostly technical, i.e i want to have that server running flawlessly 24/7 for years.
Being a witness involves publishing the fact that you are a witness a lot, as well as publishing whatever you are doing for the Steemit (or other) communities, and having as many people as possible vote for you, and i am therefore amazed i even got to the top 100 for a while ( now i guess i'm 110-120 i checked like two months ago i think) and that i even get a daily block or two. I guess those voters are mostly like me, people that appreciate somebody that maintained servers with years of uptime :-)
I also got an unbelievable boost from @jerrybanfield , and am actually a partner of his.
In conclusion, i know i could make a lot of money making a lot of noise about my witness and publishing witness updates every week, but after 8 months quietly maintaining my witness, i don't think i need to prove i'm not in for the money :-)
Edit: forgot to ask you to vote for my witness LOL!
