About WHITE SAPOTE

White sapote (Casimiroa edulis) is a fruit-bearing tree native to Central America and grown in subtropical regions worldwide. The fruit is similar in size to an apple, with creamy flesh that tastes sweet. Regarding pets, white sapote can be harmful; its seeds and skin contain toxic compounds that can cause symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, and gastrointestinal distress in cats and dogs. Therefore, it is advisable to keep both the fruit and the tree out of reach of pets to prevent accidental ingestion.
