CHOKECHERRIES*
"Crushed fruit, usually chokecherries, is then added to the meat. The whole, then, is mixed with, and fixed by, kailiauk fat, subsequently, usually, being divided into small, flattish, rounded cakes.

The member of the Ubar�s family then prays to the Priest-Kings for an abundant harvest and returns to the interior of the cylinder, at which point the Guards of the Home Stone resume their vigil.�

LARMA *
Succulent fruit, rather like an apple. A sweet fruit. It is served sliced, either fresh or fried, and served with browned honey sauce. The act of offering a larma, real or imagined, by a slave girl to her Master(when he not specifically requested one) is often regarded as a silent plea by a slave when they wish to be "used" by that Master or Mistress sexually (can also be other fruit, but usually is larma).
"The larma is luscious. It has a rather hard shell but the shell is brittle and easily broken. Within, the fleshy endocarp, the fruit, is delicious and very juicy. Sometimes, when a woman is referred to as a `larma,' it is suggested that her hard or frigid exterior conceals a rather different sort of interior, one likely to be quite delicious."
