In all of creation there is a large number of fruit and veg that contain pips or seeds,
most of which we discard for the flesh of the fruit or vegetable, except coffee where we discard the flesh and keep the beans...
Have been wondering whether the flesh of the cherries is edible, or more precisely what it tastes like, and whether it is something that maybe shouldnt be thrown away, or is it?
Is there any food value in it?
I am aware that early references indicate first taste of coffee was by eating the whole cherry,...
if so, what would have led to the decision to discard the flesh, dry the beans out and roast them?
Can someone enlighten me more on this topic?

SOO-ee JEN-er-is): No its not a hog call, but as you might have guessed its Latin and means "Of its own genus" or "Unique and unable to classify".
