lumpenprol Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 No kidding. I also don't know why mangosteen, which I think should be at the pinnacle of fruit fame along with mangos, pineapples, etc, is not more widely known. It's probably my favorite fruit apart from the dark-horse candidate durian. Also salak, which I've never had outside of indonesia, is delicious, cool-looking, and easy to eat, don't know why it doesn't get more recognition either. mangosteen: salak: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremymacgregor87 Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Regardless of how good the Durian tastes, I don't think I could overcome the smell really. Delicious food must smell delicious in my book my loss I guess. also, LYCHEES in cocktails Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried soursop, lumpy? It's really delicious fare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest countchocula Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Why have both of your posts slowly narrowed towards the bottom. Did you do that on purpose for effect? ! have no real reason behind it, i just started doing it. if you want, i could come up with a few reasons though. I have no problem with it. I just wanted to know if you did it on purpose or just subconsciously typed that way lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really delicious fare. I was about to say "no" and then I saw that it's the same thing as a guanabana, and in the same genus as the cherimoya. I've had real live cherimoyas but I've only drank guanabana juice, which is delicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I tried it, I seriously had it ALL the time till I left. My last day in Thailand, I found a girl on the street with fresh fruits making smoothies...she had mangosteen's as well, so I asked her to make me a pure mangosteen smoothie. man, it was heaven. needless to say, mangosteen is now one of my favorite fruits...however, the one fruit that may beat it is Jackfruit (can't believe it hasn't been mentioned in this thread). Jackfruit is the greatest thing known to mankind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumpenprol Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 yeah, I'm not a huge jackfruit fan, it's good enough but it sort of seems like the poor man's durian (though they don't taste alike, but they look kind of similar). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehauntingsoul Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I've never tasted Durian but I'm into exotic fruits. Have you guys ever tried Dragonfruit? Its really awesome. Texturally its alot like a Kiwi, and the taste is a bit familiar but its a very mild taste, almost like water with a tiny bit of sweetness. Awesome fruit. I've tried lychee before though, and I fucking hated it. It looks like a skinned testicle, the consistency of the tissue feels like chewing on a testicle might, and the taste has forever been burned into my brain as the taste of human testicle - only to be replaced if I ever try human testicle.
