Rambutan or star fruit aka Carambola, have you ever heard of these? We're hoping to surprise you by unearthing & revealing the craziest and rarest tasting or looking fruits. Fruits if you didn't see you wouldn't believe.


1. Durian

Origin: Southeast Asia

This rare spiky fruit gets its bad reputation from its strong diesel like stench. The smell is so bad its actually banned from Singapore subways. Although it has a horrendous smell; the spiky texture of the fruit might be a distraction. The Durian is highly nutritious and has a pleasant lovely sweet taste.


2. Star Fruit

Origin: Southeast Asia

Carambola is also known as "star fruit" because of its star like shape when cut. Sweet when yellow also slightly sour when green, the brighter the skin, the sweeter the fruit. It's great for cooking and works well as a garnish.


3. Rambutan

Origin: Malaysia

“Rambutan" means hairy in Malaysia; this is because of its appearance. It's usually compared to a lychee because of its similarities; rambutan's sweet and sour interior actually tastes more like a grape.
