Any idea what is the name of the above fruit? It looks like a mangosteen but brown in color. The rind is hard, need to use knife to open it. Size wise is slightly smaller than mangosteen. The flesh tastes something like longan but not that sweet, a little sour. Any idea? This was given by a colleague and I didn't get the name correctly.

My 'King Of Fruits'
I've been eating a lot of durian past 2 weeks. This has broken my past 10 years record of eating durian. Due to the itch skin problem, I have been suffering from having only very little durian or sometime forcing myself not to take any. If you too a durian lover, you will know how suffer I'm to see people enjoying it while I could only smell it..... :(
This durian season really kills me. I'm so tempted to eat and eat. Totally forget about the itchness and enjoyed fully the joyful of durian moment. Hubby also never stopped me from eating durian this time, maybe he forgotten to do so..... he he I just pretended nothing happen.
We got many free durian from my colleague, Wee this year. How can I reject it! I feel so grateful to have her as my F.O.C durian supplier. Yesterday, my BIL took another 2 durians for us, it's from Batang Kali, species unknown. Will enjoy it tonight......
'Red scrimp' durian has no flesh in the middle when you open up. The flesh is more orangey as compared to normal species while the aroma smell is also stronger.
P/S : Kesian Wee, she doesn't like durian at all and doesn't even can stand the smell yet she got to bring it over for us so many times. Thank you so much!

Cherry...luxury fruit.
While doing marketing last Sun, I found out the price of cherry has dropped from RM6/100gm last two week to RM4/100gm now. So I think it's worth to buy some as I missed it so much. If not mistaken, the cherry's price has gone up RM2/100gm ever since my last purchase last year. Not sure why it was so expensive as compared to other imported fruits like Australia grape (RM15/kg) or China rockmelon (RM6/kg). Maybe the supply is limited.
This plate of cherry cost me RM8.
Jay, perhaps you may want to share the selling price over there?
