Hello Dean,
Did you ever get any response on this via PM? I was at an Asian store several weeks ago, and I saw a boxful of this fruit and I wanted to buy some just for the seeds. However, I was turned off be the $4.98/lb tag. Then, when I got home, it dawned on me that I don't need a whole pound of them. Just maybe 5 or six fruits. And they wouldn't weigh nearly a pound. I checked with sources from Puerto Rico and they charge $10 plus shipping for just 4 seeds. I haven't been back to the store since, but I'm craving for beef tripe. They have the whitest, cleanest, freshest beef tripe in the area, so I may just go there soon for it. If they still have them, I let you know.
