Why I mention something different? All fruits are the same. But why there's so called exotic fruit? What is the specialty until it became exotic. Exotic means something rare, something where you can only find in certain place, something that can call the best of the best. My favorite exotic fruit is durian. Maybe for those who stay in winter countries never heard of it. Yes it's smelly, but I love since I was eating it since young. My family is durian lover, it has spike skin, it's big and even can kill you with just one throw or drop from a tree, it has heaty element than can make you sore throat if you eat too much but it has lots of vitamin and high level of potassium. Maybe some other kind of exotic fruit is like Dragon fruit, which has white and red colour and it's just a bit like a kiwi fruit, and it has cooling effect for your body. So any fruits that you can consider exotic from your country that you'll never bored to eat it???

I guess my favorite exotic fruit is guava. We only get it here in juice form and I could drink it all day every day. I had fresh guava in Hawaii and loved it.

My favorite exotic fruit is durian. Actually when I was little I didn't like it because of its bad smell. However, when I grow up and I taste it again. It doesn't taste so bad anyway. And I start to enjoy this strange fruit:) I love China

My favorite exotic fruit is called passion fruit and I first tasted it in Australia. I bought many passion fruit in Sumatra in Indonesia. I have to cut it in half with a knife and then eat the flesh and seeds. It tastes yummy and very fruity.
