Persimmons, Sapodillas...Order online?

[Jesaroj]

I am new to persimmons and LOVE them! I know I've tried them in the past, but now being a raw foodist, I have a whole new outlook...I've also wanted to try sapodillas and other exotic fruits that are now in season. I am hoping that one of you knows a wholesale website where I can get some of these delicious things! The stores around me have some persimmons, but they are super expensive ($2 a piece) and I really can't justify that price when I'm only buying them for me. My kids don't like them

So, if anyone has a source for me to check out, I would be so greatful!!!

I'm also re-newing my enthusiasm in a more complete way for raw foods...I've been highly raw since early August but recently I feel like I've really been kidding myself that I'm being healthy (eating a slice of pizza here, candy there, etc). And having 2 daughters that I'm trying to share this "new" way of eating with, I really need to be a paragon of rawness! If they see my example, then they will feel that they can do it too. They are doing pretty wonderfully, but I feel that I should be more strict about it and what better way to do that than by being more strict on myself first?

This board is wonderful! Thanks for all the support I've felt in viewing your own stories about being raw!

where do you live? I seem to be getting the same prices around here in Nashville, but luckily, my parents have been mailing me food from Central A... nothing like the fruit there. I cannot wait to move there when I finish school.

Arizona? I'm hoping that's where you're talking about, cause my sis-in-law lives there and then I could get here to send me stuff!
