The Mangostin



This little purple fruit baby is the most delicious fruit. It is commonly found throughout the tropics of South East Asia. Peel the skin away and behold tender and slimy sections. The Mangostin is actually handled like an orange. There are seeds inside each section, but they are soft enough to chew and then swallow. Sweet and twangy deliciousness.

My favorite Asian fruit! It's a shame they are banned from import into the United States.
