    I love Persian sweet lemons. Very hard to find, but they're really good when they're in season. They're exactly like a lemon, but they're sweet so you can eat them like an orange. And does guava juice count as an unusual fruit? I could polish off a bottle of guava juice within the hour if I wanted to, the thicker the better.

    Great thread! I eat a LOT of fruit

    If you like Rambutans,
    then you might also like the similar Longans and Lychees from an Asian grocery store, maybe in Chinatown!
    Asians are very resourceful and commercial, and they love to import their favourite exotic fruit.

    I love Asian grocery stores, they have a LOT of interesting and exotic natural products: fruit, mushrooms, vegetables, teas, aloe juice, etc

    You might also enjoy Mamoncillos and Charichuelos, which are similar, but I have only seen them in tropical Latin America

    Another similar one is Jaboticaba, but I have only seen them in Brazil

    Have you ever tried the coffee fruit?

    I did so in Colombia, it is a small red fruit with a bean in the middle,
    the taste was not bad, but was nothing memorable

    I really want to try pawpaw fruit. It's a fruit native to eastern North America, from the Mississippi valley to the Appalachians, even into southern Ontario. Wikipedia says:

    Pawpaw fruits are sweet, with a custard-like texture, and a flavor somewhat similar to banana, mango, and pineapple.
    I've seen a few people nearby selling the fruits online, but they're such an oddity that they always sell out almost immediately.

    I really like a fruit that I used to eat in Angola, called Sape Sape by the locals. I think it's similar to Soursop (Graviola), the flavour is amazing.
