The other way I’ve heard this called is “chapote prieto” by Spanish-speaking people
Edit: the fruits are unripe now, they will ripen to a black/purple color

What do they taste like?
" their taste is something like a prune, but less tart and more sugary" - http://www.wildedibletexas.com/2013/07/texas-persimmons-are-ripening.html
I have not had the pleasure of tasting one myself, yet, but if the squirrels leave some for me I will happily report back!
I’ve heard of people using these for jams and preserves, some people compare their taste (or maybe their texture) to sweet custard.
