3 Fruits to Consider Ordering
1. SNAKE FRUIT
Snake Fruit have a shape similar to that of a fig. Snake fruit has a scaly outer skin that is sometimes covered in tiny spikes. Snake fruit purchased in markets is typically smoothed. Most varieties of Snake fruit have dark brown skin when mature and have a bulbous appearance that tapers to a point at one end. Beneath its scaly skin lies three white to yellowish colored lobes that look similar to large cloves of peeled garlic. Each lobe contains a hard brown, inedible seed. The texture of Salak fruit is similar to that of garlic, crunchy and crisp. The flavor is tropical, with hints of pineapple with a slightly acidic taste. Some varieties are drier and have a flaky consistency while some Snake fruit are moist and juicy. Some say Salak fruit is an acquired taste.

The Snake fruit, also known as Salak in Malaysia and Indonesia, is a fruit in the Arecaceae or palm family. The small fruit is wildly popular in Bali and India, just as apples and oranges are in the US, yet it is rarely seen outside of its native region. Snake fruit is also known as Salacca Fruit, after its botanical name ‘Salacca Zalacca’, and has over 30 known varieties.

Snake fruit is called the Fruit of Memory in Indonesia due to its levels of potassium and pectin. It contains nutrients like thiamine, iron and calcium as well as vitamin C. The Indonesian fruit has anti-diarrheal properties; if too many Snake fruit are consumed it can result in constipation. 


2. MANGOSTEEN
Mangosteen has been used to naturally treat a wide variety of health concerns for centuries by the people of Southeast Asia. Benefits include being high in fiber yet low in calories, as well as having a good serving of vitamin C.

It’s always been popular in Southeast Asia, but why has it been gaining popularity around the world and is now commonly sold as a health supplement? Well, we now know it not only contains an impressive array of essential vitamins and minerals, but it also contains a group of phytochemicals called xanthones.

Research shows that this tropical fruit can boost the immune system, decrease inflammation and even fight cancer. One Brazilian study even showed that an extract of mangosteen had both antimicrobial and anti-tumor abilities and therefore has therapeutic potential in treating infectious diseases as well as cancer.

3. GRANADILLA
Granadilla otherwise referred as Sweet granadilla or Grenadia is native to mountain regions of Bolivia, Venezuela and Colombia. The fruit measures 6.5-8 cm in length and has diameter ranging from 5.1- 7cm. The rind is hard and slippery which forms the outer shell, where seeds are embedded on a soft padding. The seeds are surrounded by gelatinous transparent pulp. The pulp possesses sweet taste and it is used as a flavoring agent in drinks. The fruit typically appears in orange and yellow color with small light markings.
