exotic fruits question

addy85 · 05-25-2010, 05:36 PM

What's some of your favorite exotic fruits?

Also where do you guys get them

mpimping · 05-25-2010, 05:45 PM

Mango grocery store

Peanuto · 05-25-2010, 05:49 PM

Starfruit is nice. Pomegranate is good too, not necessarily exotic. Both at grocery store.

MCMLXXXIX · 05-25-2010, 06:10 PM

hmmm im not sure. i had some brazilian papaya the other day (not sure if its considered exotic)...but it sucked. i got another papaya waiting to be tried. Ive also had dragonfruit, its alright. it was kinda bland

theres also this other fruit. im not sure what its called but if you google image 'cactus fruit' it comes up. a PIA to prepare but a lot more flavorful than dragonfruit. theyre kinda similar. Id love to try more different fruits tho!

oh and i got the papaya at the grocery store. um dragonfruit was during a trip to Dubai, and the cactus fruit was homegrown

Longan, jackfruit, durian, lychee

Chinese supermarkets have a lot.

I grow white sapote, lychee, surinam cherry, sapodilla and acerola here in containers, as well as sugar cane in the ground. White sapote is so delicious.

Very good. I usually get the ones imported from Taiwan. The large, round ones; not the smaller, oval ones. The only thing I like more than a good guava is watermelon.
