Also guayabas have a lovely smell and are sweet when ripe. There are different kinds of guayabas too, the ones we bought in California were bigger and tasted better than the ones we buy in the supermarket here, plus the ones here are round and about the size of pingpong ball, the nob ones are green and eggshaped and sized. They both smell the same though. <BR/>When we were kids my mom would buy pasta de guayaba and we'd eat it with cream cheese on toast. Here they sometimes call it ate de guayaba, but it's the same stuff.<BR/>regards,<BR/>TheresaTheresa in Mèridahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17217945138741786373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5472204946386631254.post-41560388883936192982008-08-25T13:50:00.000-05:002008-08-25T13:50:00.000-05:00Theresa,I did look at your website (which is exact...Theresa,<BR/>I did look at your website (which is exactly weher I got my guayaba desription!) and I still think it is guayaba but not 100% sure.

Keep those posts coming!<BR/><BR/>As far as the guayabas, they really are an acquired taste. My parents have always had a couple of trees and I still don't really like them. However, they make this marmalade with them that's made with cinnamon and piloncillo (brown sugar that they sell shaped as hard cones). It is INCREDIBLE over vanilla ice cream.NotAnMDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01699252663210540559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5472204946386631254.post-82207596908532339412008-08-22T20:19:00.000-05:002008-08-22T20:19:00.000-05:00We do not care for them.
