I grew up in southern Indiana, which is very proud of its perSIMMons--a town near where I grew up's annual festival is the Persimmon Festival, so I have heard it spoken out loud with that particular pronunciation countless times (which isn't saying that's the definitive pronunciation, just that a lot of people say it that way)

Those celebrated are the tiny squishy native North American persimmons and not the big lovely Asian persimmons in the picture above, and the first thing you are taught about them is to never ever try to eat them directly from the tree. They're only ripe enough to eat after they've fallen from the tree, and even moreso if they've been exposed to frost. (I know the Asian kinds have different ripening habits)

They are most commonly, in current southern Indiana, turned into persimmon pudding, which is a steamed or baked pudding (not milk-based.)

Luna moths like the trees, too

Custards and Puddings - Sandra's Persimmon Pudding Despite the fact that this pudding is baked rather than steamed, this spiced cake made with the pulp of fresh persimmon remains very moist. Serve with whipped cream.
