Fellow CH's,

A question for the numerous more knowledgeable than myself.

A buddy of mine came back from Alabama where he (not knowing the magnitude
of his "score") purchased a grocery bag of Caribbean Red's from a farmer's
market. Since he doesn't like hot food….and, not really sure why he
purchased these anyway…..I was presented with this precious cargo this
weekend. For Free no less! YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now for the question. Are
Caribbean Reds the same as a Red Savina? This may well be a very stupid
question but I'm trying to determine if I can use these successfully in my
recipes that call for Savinas. Also, I'm dehydrating a bunch of these and am
going to try my luck with recycling their seeds into my garden next spring.
Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Greg
