MKT PAID Buen provecho

“The chicozapote is a fruit native to Mexico and Central America, where it has been cultivated for centuries by Mesoamerican cultures. This fruit grows on a highly useful tree, which not only produces the fruit but also yields a gummy resin. In Nahuatl, this resin is called “tzictli,” meaning gum. The Maya and the Aztecs used this gum to freshen their breath and clean their teeth.”
