| Sorry Crofter, the answer is YES!
Ileli's in Alsancak have been having them in recently, however, they haven't got any today! |

| You can buy them in the fruit & veg section of Orphanides. The Israelis stole them (Kumeras - Maori potato) from New Zealand, as they did Kiwi Fruit, and now have a thriving export industry. I think they have also 'nicked' Nashis (Oriental Pears) from NZ, also.
Has anybody eaten a Nashi? - So juicy, you need to stand over the bath to eat 'em! |

| Of course they can grow in TRNC - the climate is ideal; but that would require 'initiative' = doing something useful without being told.
If the government can't use their initiative to make the changes urgently necessitated to boost the stagnant economy, one can hardly expect a 'man of the land' (euphemism!) to! |
