FIG
		Teardrop-shaped in shades of purple, green and red, there are over 600 varieties. Common varieties are black mission, brown turkey, calimyrna and kadota. A perfectly ripe fig has "the cloak of a beggar, and the eye of a widow," in that the skin may be tattered and the fig weeping juice. Eat out of hand. Flesh is soft, almost gooey, extremely sweet and slightly nutty.
