Few lanzones fruit this year

I have been waiting for the lanzones fruit to drop down its price to around Php20-30.00/kilo this year but it never goes down. Maybe because of its few production this year. A Php40.00 - 60.00 per kilo of lanzones is just too pricey for me. Hopefully there will be more lanzones next year to satisfy my cravings.LOL

The lanzoness fruit is covered by yellowish, thick,leathery skin. Underneath the skin, the fruit isdivided into five or six slices of translucent, juicy flesh. The flesh is slightly acidic i ntaste, although ripe specimens are sweeter. Green seeds are present around half of the segments, usually taking up a small portion of the segment although some seeds take up the entire segment's volume. In contrast with the sweet - sour flavor of the fruit's flesh, the seeds are extremely bitter. The sweet juicy flesh contains sucrose, fructose, and glucose.
