At 1:32 I see a pretty yellow fig with what looks like tape over the eye.  What is that and why did you put it there?

The Armenian fig has a huge open eye when ripening.  I put some breathable medical tape on to keep insects out and prevent them from spoiling the fig.

Nice video. Let us know what that one fig is if you figure it out, the one you ate right after Ischia Balck that you said was comparable
