Mad for Mangosteens!
This dark purple skinned fruit is widely found in the South East Asia region. I love mangosteen seasons! It's also the rambutan and durian season. I don't dig the latter but I love the former! I was gonna eat my mangosteens, and decided to post something about it for those who aren't familiar with local Malaysian fruits. Apparently it's one of the 'superfruits' haha! Dark purple outside, white inside At the base of the fruit, you see this flower-ish pattern..my mum told me the amount of 'petals' signifies the amount of fruit that's inside. Like this one, it has 6 petals... True enough, it has 6 fruits inside mmm sweet You gotta be careful though..the juice leaves a nasty stain! Useful Site: Mangosteen
