My tast buds are used to my purple fig, since it was all I had for about 20 years it has fruited for me. All the new ones, new flavors, looks, textures... are all great, but since I am so used to my purple.. I like it also. I came home and run to the tree, with all the rain we had these last 2 days, they are all swollen and ripening, fallen apart... even watery, they taste really good to me. I am happy I have it. thanks to all for the nice comments.
