In Pangasinan we call it “Al-lagat”. The one shown in the picture is still manibalang. The ripe one usually has a darker red color and it taste sweeter because the manibalang one taste sour. It is eaten raw but not the skin. You can eat it in a way like eating an ice candy.

MM–You just made my day. How could I have missed this post? This is something I have reminisced over the years and never thought Iâ€™ll see this fruit again. To know that it thrives in PI gives me so much pleasure. This fruit was just as ubiquitous as guava and duhat growing up in Cavite. I remember it to be sour and sweet and gelatinous. This fruit conjures up memories. I vividly remember my grandfather coming home with a branch over his shoulder teeming with red, succulent treats. Thank you for bringing back pleasant memories!
