#60 Jacuticaba: The ephemeral fruit
from Anthropology Bites Hosted by Carmen Vega-Reina
A tiny fruit with a strange kind of magic, jabuticaba grows directly on the skin of the tree, turning trunks into constellations of deep purple. In this episode, we explore its fleeting sweetness, its place in Brazilian memory, and the way a single bite can feel like stepping into someone’s childhood.
