Mango Nectarine?

Is it some kind of unholy cross breed? Or genetic engineering?* Whatever it is, seek out these delightful little crimes against nature! They look like yellow plums, but they have an intense, sweet/tart flavor. The outside skin has a strange texture, too. Not fuzzy, but sort of rubbery. Not in a bad way, but they feel a little like neophrene fruits. But frangrant, mon dieu! You can smell them almost from the entrance to the store! They bruise very easily and start to taste bruised immediately, so do treat them gently.

You can find them at Safeway right now. Price? Who cares!?

*I am pretty sure they were created using classic hybrid technology, not a frankenfood mechanism.
