I was recently in Barcelona and visited La Boqueria market (fantastic). I saw a load of fruits I wasn't familiar with. One was the PITANYA - like a purple mango with bits sticking out. Its flesh inside was deep purple with seeds. Can you tell me its English name? Many thanks.

Out of curiosity...
Nov 4, 2004
I tried to find the word "pitanya" in a Catalan dictionary unsuccessfully. So I tried a Spanish one where I found a fruit called "pitanga". I've checked and this is also the name for it in English.
Not "pitanya" but "pitanga".
Hope it helps.
Teresa
