While with my grandparents in the village, this fruit was one of my favorites. After so many years, I think I only ate it once or twice more. Last weekend, I went to the market and saw this fruit, which brought back sweet memories. I bought it, took it home, and later cut it into pieces and put it in the fridge after we ate some. We decided to check the health benefits of it. During our research, we realized that the name we call it, 'fig,' is not the real name of this fruit, and it's not even part of the fig family. Funny ba?
