Top Ten Tropical Fruits You Can't Miss in Singapore

Every time you go to a city, you can always find something related to eating, which makes you feel extremely happy to live here. For example, in Paris, I met French sticks and red wine, and the purple cherry in summer. In Singapore, all tropical fruits are found. Yes, Singapore, an island country on the tropical edge, is the busiest trading port in Southeast Asia, and its supermarkets are full of fruits from Southeast Asia and even all corners of the country.

let's take a look at the top ten tropical fruits that must be eaten in Southeast Asia.

1. Durian

Durian

Known as the "King of Fruits"

, Durian is a tropical fruit originating in Southeast Asia, which is feared by many people because of its unique and strong smell and domineering prickly shell; And its sour and juicy fruit has a taste similar to ice cream, which makes many people addicted to it as soon as they eat it. People who love it love it to death, and people who hate it can't stand its smell. Such a polarized evaluation is a good excuse worth trying. Although durian is delicious, it is not suitable to eat more because of its high cholesterol and sugar content.

2. Mangosteen

Mangosteen

The best partner of durian is Mangosteen, and eating them together can avoid the trouble of getting angry. This "queen of fruit"

is native to Southeast Asia, but this persimmon-like fruit has a hard shell, and the most interesting thing is that the small petals at the bottom of the shell have the same number as the fruit in the belly; Open the skin and you can see several white and glittering fruits, which are surrounded like peeled garlic petals. This kind of white and smooth pulp is sweet and fragrant, quenching thirst, but because of its cool nature, it has the effect of "reducing fire" < P >; Because the rich protein has a good nourishing effect on the body.

I believe many people will be impressed by the shape of jackfruit, which is the largest and heaviest fruit in the world and is known as the "tropical fruit queen"

. The appearance very similar to durian and the oversize size

are one of the characteristics of jackfruit. I would like to remind you here that you must put gloves on the jackfruit, or the honey juice it carries may make your skin itch for a long time! But fortunately, many supermarkets will divide it into several parts to sell. This kind of Indian-originated fruit is now abundant in Taiwan Province, Guangdong and Guangxi. The jackfruit on the American market is mostly produced in Mexico. Its thick, soft, sweet and delicious fruits are not only delicious, but also have high nutritional and medicinal value.
