Hi during holidays, I always see offered these deliciously preserved figs, called 'medjugorje' (sp?) Are they from a medjugorje fig tree? Or are they called that because of the story about the children who saw virgin mary in Medjugorje? Or where ever it is, is that the true name of the tree, or what is it?

I only see them for sale as specialty items during holidays. The grocer at the commisary told me one year that he only ordered them if someone asked; he used to do it each year, but due to expense he stopped doing it. (I always ask! Yes, they're expensive, but delicious. It's only during the holiday & it doesn't take much to satisfy my taste for their rich sweetness)
