Pommegranites should be in season around now. My parents like plums and I like blueberries although they're expensive.

durians!!!!! it's very potent and can contain quite high in calories.... :D

one may be on fruits diet for reducing weight or something... each fruit contains different nutrients.... so each meal should contain different fruits for the nutrients a body needs for the day... gd example... blue berries are good for the eyes...

alternatively... make veggie salads...:)

try a green mango.. one not ripe at all.


can't really eat unripe mango... but you can eat it if it's made into a salad...

shredded green mango.... mixed with fresh cut shallots, boiled small prawns (shrimps), cut chillies (tiny slices), garnish with cashew nuts, coriander, shredded pomelo... drizzle some thai fish sauce, sugar and you have a classic thai mango salad....

Salaam Summer

Several ideas come to mind. Try some different varieties of apple and pears, they are now in season in the UK so a decent greengrocer should several varieties of both in at the moment. Choose local fruit as thats the freshist and some of the stuff shipped half way round the World has NO taste and uses lots of unneccessary milage.

Of course you should try oranges, tangerines etc, grapes, grapefruits, dried fruit, pineapple, in fact look round a good greengrocer or big supermarket the choice is good.

i think that you should defo. try and eat all the diff fruits the sis/bros have mentioned here but i'm going to suggest mixing your fruits together into a salad so that you don't get "bored" and keep breaking your healthy diet.

its a shame strawberries are out of season there defiantly one of my favorite berries....and also bananas are lush :inlove:

anyway I couldn't taste anything at all but if I have to choose then I'd describe the taste like bitter. If you're considering to try one I would recommend you to add some sugar to the fruit:)

Thai fruit: Mangoesteen (Queen of Fruits)

Specie grow: There is only single native specie cultivated but the fruit may looks different but taste the same.

Nutrition fact: Mangoesteen meat has cellulose that is good for laxative and full of vitamins and mineral salt. Its shell can turn into pharmaceutical products.

Usage: It can be used in cosmetics. Soap and antiseptic are produced from mangoesteen shell.

Note: Careful with the shell, it stains clothes.

You were in Singapore? :rubeyes:When was the last time you were there...?
