I looove mangosteen. I just can't find any that are good here. Did you buy these in Toronto? and where!?

I ate these for the first time during my last trip to Malaysia. I don't know how I missed them before! (must have been distracted by all the other fruits...)

dapan says:

Thanks for ALL your comments!!

@Bas.K, @sulphurlee, @stephen_pix, @alt_castan, @Maria Spreng, @ie.eg.etc, @cbcastro - it very difficult to describe the taste of it... very delicate, sweet, and has flavors the range from barries, asian pear & vallina ice-cream.

@Jen Chan - yes, bought it in Toronto - Uni Food Mart (Brimley/Sheppard).
