Gidday there,

	I've been away from the Antipodes (New Zealand) for three years,
and I've suddenly had a craving for some Feijoa's... but nobody here
(Canada)  knows what they are! 

	Does anyone know where (in the world) they came from?  I know
Kiwifruit came from china (?), is that the same place that the Feijoa's
came from?  

	If you know anything about these fruit, as in another name for
them.  Even the botanical binomial nomenclature title... I would
appreciate it?  I'd also love to know where they grow outside of New
Zealand and if they can be found in Canada anywhere.  That goes for Feijoa
juice too.

	Please reply to the group and to my email if possible.

Thanks in advance

JOshua
