Product Description
An exotic new import from Thailand, Frieda's Fresh Mangosteens are a tropical fruit explosion that melts in your mouth. Inside each Mangosteen's woody dark purple shell are 5 to 7 plump, moist cream-colored sections whose flavor has been described as... "indescribable." Savor Frieda's Fresh Mangosteen by simply holding the fruit with the stem-end down and cut around the fruit's middle or "equator" with a sharp knife. Open the shell and lift each creamy white segment out with a fork. Mangosteen has a silky, mouthwatering texture and a flavor combination of ripe peach, creamy orange, strawberry and citrus. (It's often compared to a Lychee.) Decorate fruit platters or appetizer trays with beautiful half open mangosteen fruit cups that will keep your guests talking and asking for more! DUE TO HIGH PERISHABILITY, MANGOSTEENS REQUIRE OVERNIGHT DELIVERY. Orders placed during business hours (PST) M-Th are processed the next business day. You should receive a confirmation email within 24 to 48 hours (business days M-F). Best eaten alone fresh out of the shell. Perfect in salads, fruit platters or as a dessert. Puree into sorbets or ice cream for a intense tropical flavor explosion. Keep refrigerated and use within 3 to 4 days. (May be frozen after peeling, but flavor is best enjoyed fresh.) Treated with irradiation

 best enjoyed on a trip to asia... March 16, 2010

Mangosteens are pretty amazing fruit, but given the expense, they're best enjoyed in their native lands, where one can eat them ad nauseum (literally) for a small fraction of this price. In any case, not worth this exorbitant price, nor am I a fan of shipping fruit across the world, irradiating it, and then air shipping it once again--terribly wasteful... I'm not advocating a flight out to hong kong just to eat these suckers, but rather just advise you to seek them out whilst there...

The fruit was delicious, but not to be compared with the incredible Mango fruit. After spending fifteen minutes struggling with the indestructable exterior, you are left with only a small amount fruit that has been traumatized by the sawing and digging of your knife. Deffinitly not with the effort.
