The coco de mer seed is huge and about the size and shape of a woman's midsection. The plants are found on the Seychelles islands with the seeds weighing up to 30 kg! Due to the erotic shape and size of the fruit many throughout history have considered it to be both a forbidden fruit and an aphrodisiac. There is even a perfume made from the essence of the seed.
