Strange Fruit...

After being in Hawaii and giving dragon fruit a try we decided we'd try more tropical fruits. So, recently we saw a new exotic fruit at our local grocery. This week when we went to do our Sunday shopping they still had this odd looking fruit called Rambutan. So we picked two up at $9.99 a pound. For two it cost us approximately $2.00.

I did some research on how to open and eat this fruit. So, we enjoyed it with lunch. It has a sizable seed in the middle. Mario ate the seed and I did not (he said it was a little bitter). The fruit itself is an interesting texture (much like stiffer gelatin). The flavor was very mellow, refreshing and very enjoyable! We will be having this yummy fruit again!
