More tropical fruit

Bangkok, Thailand
Wednesday, December 23, 2009

As the days go by, we’ve had time to sample more of Thailand’s tropical fruit selection. Wow, such wondrous diversity! The taste of jack fruit continues to grow on me—it’s about 18 inches long and wonderfully complex on the inside. It’s the orangish-yellow sections that one can eat. Dragon fruit has a crisp white fruit with tiny black seeds and is interesting to look at, but there’s not too much flavor there.
