We found mangosteens in the supermarket today! I recognized them from the Yihai market, but I really didn’t expect to find them in such close proximity to drive-thru hush puppies.

    Meg,

    I had never heard of this fruit before, but with a peach, pineapple and raspberry flavor, it sounds both exotic and delicious.

    Glad to hear that you were able to find some!

    @Cory I never saw a dried mangosteen! Sounds yummy but I have to admit that breaking open the fruit is half the fun.

    @Andrew It was pretty cool! We weren’t really looking for it, but it jumped out at me. Do you have any wild foods in Korea?

    They have it at Trader Joe’s, IIRC

    Meg,

    Not too many, but that’s Ok – rice cakes seem dangerous enough for me!

What do you think?
