My ice cream has ripe fruit for the first time. As the bunch was very heavy (I estimate 80 lbs +) and very high in the air, I had to ask Celestino and Boni to cut it down for me. The green markings on the ripe fruit appear to be caused by a fluffy white insect - some sort of aphid perhaps. The ripe fingers are very thin-skinned and delicate, and delicious. We all stood around and ate the first few ripe fingers, as they separate from the bunch very easily.
