Cherimoya has gotten easier to find in the Chicago area in recent years, and not just at Asian and Latino markets. I'm fairly sure the last time I saw it was within the last month at the Mariano's on Milwaukee Avenue in Vernon Hills. Not saying I'd expect it to be easy to find at, say, Jewel, but I think it's well worth looking at some places like Garden Fresh Market, Fresh Farms, and yes, even the exotic fruit section in Mariano's.
