Atemoya From: www.florida-agriculture.com

The Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services touches the lives of Floridians in countless ways -- large and small, dramatic and subtle -- every day.

.....We work with farmers to ensure a safe and abundant food supply and market our agricultural commodities to the world. We operate the state's consumer hotline and help consumers resolve problems ranging from auto repair fraud to telemarketing complaints. We inspect scales and gasoline pumps to ensure that consumers get their money's worth.

History and Facts:
The atemoya is heart-shaped, and has a creamy white, slightly juicy pudding-sweet pulp. Its skin is pale green and bumpy. The fruit should be ripened at room temperature until it yields to gentle pressure.

Nutritional Value:
Atemoyas contain 94 calories per 1/3 cup of whole fresh fruit. The fruit is a good source of potassium, protein, and carbohydrates.

Storage:
Atemoyas will split at the ends and the skin color will darken when the fruit is ripe. These are not signs of declining quality. The fruit should be stored and displayed at room temperature. Cracked fruit should be overwrapped and labeled with ripe stickers.

Availability:
August to October
