Gotta love Asia though- for example in Vietnam you could rent a whole orchard to your self (and family) and just eat all you want. Best of all it costs like $20-30.

I did that in China for $10 china money ~$1.50 USD

ate like 1000 lychee until i KO

he's right

, they are known as hairy cherry unofficially or chom chom in viet---http://www.vietscape.com/travel/fruits/index.html

This thread really needs to be renamed to "Asians, come here and discuss fruit."

In case you haven't noticed, this whole forum should be renamed to Asianpost.com.

never tried rambutans...
but, as for durians, ugh... UGHHH... that thing smells like the worse end of a camel's end on a hot summer day... tried a durian milkshake once, had to smoke a few cigs to get that nasty funk smell off of my tastebuds.
