no one mentionned the dragon fruit? the taste isn't particular, but the colors are amazing! Yeah, I was kind of disappointed after finally trying it. I guess I expected it to be really tasty based on the outward appearance.

Dragon fruit is the best (with mangoustan) but it has to be not too ripe in order to stay a little sour but still sweet! mmmmmmhhhhh, I'm gonna get some fresh ones in just 24 days now! yeah!

^ i agree, there really isnt much flavour to dragon fruit at all.. i only tried it recently but have grown to quite like it.. dragon fruit season is coming round soon, they're supposed to 'taste' when in season!

I voted mango..esp. the yellow ones so sweeet no one mentionned the dragon fruit? the taste isn't particular, but the colors are amazing! yeah i did, but i guess people must just ignore me they are so expensive here in the UK, say like £2 whereas in vietnam i got them dirt cheap~ like a bagful for around 20p.

There's no way you could choose just one. Every piece of fruit my mother gave me while we were in Viet Nam was devoured in SECONDS!!!! Sadly, there was one that I LOVED (couldn't tell you the name of it to save my life) but it's no where to be found in the US. WAH!!!!!!
But how could you guys forget about Loganberries??? Come on, they are AWESOME!!!

[/img][/quote] eating durian for me is kind of a private thing. It's SUCH a sensual experience, in terms of aroma, flavor, texture, messiness, etc etc etc. I almost feel naughty eating it in front of strangers, like i'm exposing something not meant for public.
