the.com/guava

the fruit packing four times more vitamin C than an orange, smugly.

means A tropical fruit with fragrant flesh ranging from white to deep pink, eaten fresh or cooked into pastes and jellies.

from From Spanish 'guayaba,' which the Spanish borrowed from Taíno or another Arawakan language of the Caribbean when they encountered the fruit in the New World — so the word, like the plant, is a native of the tropical Americas that traveled the world under a borrowed Spanish coat.
