(Although several related fruits are also referred to as custard apples, so you might not have had one.) If you can, try an El Hierro pineapple. Tiny; and expensive (despite coming from next door), but the best pineapple I've ever had.

They are different varieties and no doubt there will be claims to different varieties of apples, pears, plums, chillies and so on. I'm going to be a vegetable nazi and say that rice is not a fruit or a vegetable, though, it's a seed.
