I've also heard there are Middle Eastern fuzzy green plums that are similar. I know they're not at Han Ah Reum in Manhattan or at Mitsuwa in Edgewater, NJ, except in the already pickled form. If anyone has any tips for where I can find them, I'd be so happy! Mon Mar 16 06:49:49 -0700 2009 10697 AppleSister 1 4508806 I don't think they're in season yet.. perhaps June.
