10. Black Sapote
Opening up this fruit looks like you’ve found milk chocolate in the wild. After all, it is called the chocolate pudding fruit. It’s more official name, however, is the black sapote. Found in its native environment of the Caribbean, Mexico, and Central America, black sapote grows on trees that can reach as high as 82 feet or 25 meters high. While unripe black sapote can be caustic or bitter, when it’s ripe, it’s said to have the taste of chocolate pudding.


9. Lychee
How can something be so dangerous yet also pretty healthy for you? If you thought your relationships were complicated, then you probably haven’t learned much about lychee. Just kidding, but also kind of not. First off, we need to stress that while lychee contains lots of benefits that include being anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, great for your immunity, eating it before it’s ripe and on an empty stomach can cause seizing so make sure you wait and that you eat a nice meal beforehand.



8. Pitaya
In English, we refer to this more commonly as the dragon fruit, though it’s also known as the pitaya. There’s a few different species, cultivated around the world from Australia, to the Caribbean, Southeast Asia and even parts of the United States. Dragon fruit comes from its names in Asia, whereas in South America it’s known as pitaya. What’s cool about it is that when you slice it past that pink and green exterior, the inside looks a bit like vanilla bean ice cream.


7. Purple Mangosteen
Native to Southeast Asia, the mangosteen looks nothing like the mangoes you’ll find down there, but is instead a whole fruit to its own. Mangosteen or purple mangosteen, has a sweet and sour taste and has a rather juicy consistency. Seeds are the size of almonds and have citrus-like fruits that surround it.


6. Chayote
It doesn’t look so appealing on the outside, does it? If anything it’s looks exceptionally for weird yet plain at the same time. That’s chayote, a type of gourd that has a starchy texture similar to that of a yam when cooked. When raw, it’s much crunchier and can be used in salads. The whole plant is edible, from its fruit to the root to the stem and seeds and even leaves.


5. Jaboticaba
This type of tree is considered a “slow growing” evergreen and if you came across this in the forest, you’d probably either be freaked or intrigued. Those black bulbs growing on the stree’s trunk and branches are the fruit. They can be eaten raw, but also prepared into juice, wines, or jellies. The small, thick-skinned purplish-black fruits grow to be between 3 to 4 centimeters in diameter with an stringent skin that feels a lot like a grape’s.



4. Horned Melon
It apparently tastes like a passionfruit and a banana put together yet it looks like something that came out of a video game set on another planet. The horned melon or the kiwano, belongs to the cucumber family as well as the melon family. Endemic to Sub-Saharan Africa, cultivators introduced the horned melon to parts of Europe such as Italy and Germany and even all the way to New Zealand as well as the the Americas.


3. Hala Aka Puhala
Found in the Pacific Islands, eastern Australia, and Malesia, this fruit looks like it was brought to us by otherworld beings. That’s the Hala Aka Puhala, sometimes called the Tahitian screwpine or pandanus. Growing on the female trees is this huge segmented fruit that appears a dark green on the outside and a vibrant oren red on the inside. IT comes with about 38 to up to 200 wedges.


2. Durian
Up next we have the King of Fruits, the stinky big, spiky tree fruit known as durian. The name comes from the Malay word for “thorn” which is duri. The strong odor can stay in the air for days, a smell that has been said to be similar to garbage. Nice, right? About 100 different varieties can be found in Indonesia with many more kinds found in Malaysia and Thailand.
