Found my new favorite fruit.

This tastes so damn good. It's where the grapefruit came from but it's naturally sweeter and a little more sour. If you get one make sure you get the fat ones not the small ones. These are just really really good

I can practice my PIIHB skills with this fruit.

pomelo seeds bother me though. too much damn work for fruit. they're good.

 

[biggestmuff]

fuck the pomelo. the tangelo is where it's at.

Oro Blanco grapefruit, a pomelo/grapefruit cross, pawn mere pomelos and mere grapefruit. They are the asian-anglo chicks of the citrus family. I have to admit a bias. I had one for lunch today, picked off the tree in the backyard.

oh is it the one with the round blue thing and the long yellow thing?

Pomelo.

Try the rambotan, mangosteen, starfruit, and pitahaya/"dragon fruit" (either get the yellow-skinned type or the red-fleshed type)

Pomelo is nice to have once in a while, but I would prefer Vu Sua (star apple) over it any day.

IMHO:

1.Star apple (green > purple variety)
2.Sugar cane juice (fresh)
3.Sour sop juice (fresh)
4.Coconut water.
5.Mango (tree ripen)
6.Longan

Pomelo's are great when you have a sore throat.

Anyone who says anything except for mangosteen has obviously never had a mangosteen.

How is it sweeter and more sour at the same time

<-- don't like mangosteen

It could be that you never had a fully riped star apple, or fresh squeeze sugar cane that spiced with hint of orange/tangelo.

Hmmm.. only explanation for this is you don't know how to eat mangosteen and bit into the purple part. I will not leave this thread and be fully satisfied that this is the reason you said that.

Nope, I just don't care much for the taste. To me there are many other fruits that tastes better than mangosteen. And, I'm the only Asian that I know that dislike durian.
