The picture was actually taken in Somalia by an Italian ex-pat.
Don't think ours is like the Chinese one.

That is canuuni. We used to go to Afgoi and load the bed of my fathers truck with fruits back in the day straight from the fruit farms when I was young. Ofcourse my much older cousin used to drive the car and I would come along for the trip. I bet none of you ever had Beeydaan or even know what it is called in English. We had a Beydaan fruit tree in our yard back in Kismayo.
