This fruit of the palmyra palm I found in a large supermarket in Muscat, the capital of Oman.

Despite their size, the stone fruits grow in groups. I have only tried the approximately walnut-sized kernels, of which there are usually 3 to 4 in a fruit. They contain a lot of water and have a subtle, coconut-like, sweet taste. The consistency also reminds of the pulp of an immature, green coconut. The gelatinous mass is surrounded by a leathery to ligneous peel. Even the pulp surrounding the kernels is edible raw and roasted (see also B. aethiopum). 

Another part of the palmyra palm is edible. From the male inflorescences a sugar juice is won, which is processed to palm wine or palm sugar. Palm wine is made from many palm trees. This is called “toddy”, which is why the palmyra palm is also called toddy palm.
