dunks - " monkey apples"





My wife picking dunks from a very, very prickly branch that drew blood easily.

One of the first things my wife wants to know when we arrive in Barbados is whether there are any dunks on the surrounding trees.

If the monkeys haven't eaten them there's a good chance someone that sells them has cleaned the trees. The school children can't pass a dunks tree without stuffing their mouths and pockets.

Our kids loved eating dunks but think an acquired taste is necessary because I don't like them at all.

You really have to watch our for the thorns or they'll get you.

The haul from a half hours picking I put a Canadian quarter next to the dunks so you could get an idea of size
