what I have learned about gelatinous mutant coconut.
item. it's not just for gelatinous mutant coconut balls. you can get gelatinous mutant coconut strings, too. item. the reason they are called "coconut sport balls" on the back is that "coconut sport" is being used in the sense of "mutant coconut". item. "macapuno" is the specific mutation or else coconut phenotype. it develops jelly-like, and without a milk cavity. item. certain people say instead that macapuno is merely from young coconut. item. I will never accept this.

The macapuno is a mutant of the coconut. Until I had to write this piece, I thought that the macapuno fruit is just an abnormal outgrowth of the regular coconut tree as I had learned as a child. Not anymore, the Philippine Coconut Authority corrected me. The Authority has developed macapuno trees that yield 80 per cent macapuno fruits.

There are also some unusual types of coconut palms in different parts of the world. The Macapuno coconut of the Philippines is famous for having no milk cavity. The jelly-like flesh fills the middle and can be eaten with a spoon.
