I am eating a ton of persimmons right now I may be a candidate for bezoars, and the season is just getting going good.

Regarding persimmon bezoars, you can apparently treat them by drinking a lot of Coke. (!!)

I just pick up from the lawn another bag of Prok. They sure are tasty American persimmon.

Wasn’t that in Doc Hollywood? I remember Michael J Fox being shocked when the old doctor gave that boy a Coke.
