Finally found a place that sells FRESH mangostans...

Any of our asian (or not so asian) members know what I can do with the peel?... I've heard you can dry it and make powder of it or soak the peels in water for 12 hours and make tea of them. No idea how that works, so yeah, any help would be appreciated. Would hate to just throw away the best and most heathy part of this fruit...

Maybe I can use it in any way to help give my 2 sphynx girls a healt boost?... They both have pretty severe chronic Feline Upper Respiratory Disease Complex. So they can always use a good health boost. Anything to keep my cutiepies with me as long as possible... ^^

I guess it's just one of those topics people love fighting about.

Can't argue with that. Might be because it's so easy to fight about. I mean, you just went through the entire situation in a paragraph

Jazz apples are delicious! But nothing compares to a tangy, crisp granny smith!

I'm actually eating one right now.

An apple, that is.

I think Pink Lady apples are the best... ^^

Jazz apples are alright. I find it ridiculous that we (as in man kind) have to invent new apples. Like we don't have enough or something. Jazz apples are a cross between a Braeburn and a Gala, if I remember correctly. Apparently they tried many variations of crossing a Braeburn before they landed on what they called Jazz.

Any one try a Honey Crisp apple? They became pretty popular this past season. You wont be able to find them right now, not until the Fall. But I think they're trying to make it a year round apple. They blow Jazz and Pink Lady away in the flavor department.

Speaking of fruit that man invented, since we're coming up on the summer season, any one ever try a Pluot? It's a cross between a plum and an apricot. There's a few different kind, but I believe the Dinosaur Egg one is most common. They're alright. I like Mango Nectarines myself. That's right, a cross between a mango and a nectarine. Amazing taste. I wait all year for them.

You ever try a white flesh peach? They're really good. I'm not much of a peach person myself, but I love the white flesh nectarines.
