A few fruits I picked up on the ground in Petropolis (plus a green coffee bean that I got from the tree).

The yellow one is guava. It was fully of warms. Supposedly it always is. Guava isn’t a good fruit to eat by itself, though, as it’s full of seeds that are too big to just swallow and too small to spit out. Guava is good for making goiabada. The orange tasted like a grapefruit – ok for making grapefruit juice. (We actually collected a whole bunch and did make some grapefruit juice.) I was told it’s not green – it’s just a grapefruity variety of orange. The avocado is typical of what you see sold in Brazil quite often. They are much bigger than California avocados, but don’t taste as good. And the coffee – it’s obviously not ripe yet, but we'll see more of it later.
