Author	Topic: any fatty fruits besides avocado?
Auron 04-11-2003 02:19 PM	and besides nuts is there actually any other fruit that is kind of fatty?

Durian has decent amounts, a woman's magazine recognized cherimoyas as being high in vitamin c, potassium, and tasted good...but warned that they were higher in fat and calories than most other fruits. White sapotes taste sweet and creamy, another posibility, but you really have to look these things up in a chart. I recently bought some cherimoyas in safeway. The woman at the register commented that she didn't like how 'greasy' they were. I choose rather to say they are creamy.

Coconut and coconut oil Palm oil grapeseed oil black currantseed oil olive oil rosehip oil Some are actually from the seed contained within the fruit, but many you would end up eating anyway. With so many types of fruit in the world, there has to be some more with higher fat contents. Its just that few might be commercially available.
