Chocolate Pudding From A TREE ?
You've Got To Be Kidding!
It's kind of a novelty, but yep, it really does have the texture and flavor of chocolate pudding!
I know that sounds odd, but I've actually tasted this one myself -- it's not real sugary sweet, just mildly sweet, but the texture is quite smooth & fine, and does taste like chocolate pudding -- much to my surprise.
Fruit needs to be exceptionally ripe before it has the right flavor. I suppose it would be quite interesting served with Breyer's Vanilla ice cream!
