Zapote - Sapote - (from Nahuatl tzapotl) is a term for a soft, edible fruit. The word is incorporated into the common names of several unrelated fruit-bearing plants native to southern Mexico, Central America and northern parts of South America. It is also known in Caribbean English as soapapple.
If you look at the seed of a zapote, it is as dark as a night without the light of the moon.
