Is this the biggest weekly market in Malaysia? 😱 The Temerloh Sunday morning weekly market sprawls for over a kilometer along the bank of the Temerloh River, diverting up several small streets and twisting into a crowded labyrinth of food. If you’re a food or fruit lover this is a must to add to your itinerary!
➡️Here’s some of the local treats we picked up on our shopping trip:
✨Machang Mangoes (M. foetida)
✨Fresh Coconut
✨Langsats
✨Tempoyak (fermented durian)
✨Fresh Durian
✨Buah keranji (velvet tamarind)
✨Putu cakes with gula kabong
✨Boiled peanuts
✨Pecel (steamed veggies with peanut sauce, except this time the peanut sauce wasn’t vegan)
✨Petai beans fresh
✨Pickled petai
✨Mangoes from Thailand
✨Fresh sugar cane juice
✨Fresh Nira Kabung

Mesta Mangosteens are so tasty compared with regular mangosteens… and their existence is such a weird plant story. Ready to geek up? 🤓
💜Mesta Mangosteens are distinct from regular mangosteens because they have very thick peels that are darker in color, are often seedless or nearly seedless, and have a firmer and slightly crunchy flesh that explodes with full-on sweet-sour flowery mangosteen flavor when you take a bite. I think I can say that most people prefer Mestas to regular mangosteens💜
But how Mesta Mangosteens exist is a mystery 🤔
Mangosteen trees reproduce by apomixis, meaning that their seeds contain a complete set of chromosomes from the mother tree. Additionally their flowers have sterile anthers (male parts), so there’s no cross-pollination (tree sexy-time) required to make a mangosteen fruit. This means that all mangosteens, all over the entire world, are essentially clones of one ancient mother mangosteen from a bazillion years ago.
So how did Mesta Mangosteen come to exist? One farmer told me they were genetically engineered by the Japanese 😅 but I think there’s probably a much more interesting answer. Other species of mangosteen, like Garcinia celebica, do have flowers with fertile male parts, so could Mesta be a triploid hybrid of mangosteen with another species? Or maybe just a random mutation? Or is something else happening?
➡️Answer with your theories about Mesta, and if you’ve tasted this amazing Mangosteen variety before tell us how much you love it in the comments below💜🙏🏼

Black sapote aka the chocolate pudding fruit is back in season 🍫
Ok hate to break it to ya, this fruit doesn’t actually taste like chocolate 😅 BUT it does have the most perfect pudding texture. Black sapote has a slight sweetness and it’s subtle flavor will keep you coming back for more.
Since this fruit is in the persimmons (the super soft hachiya ones) it needs to be very, very ripe to be enjoyed thoroughly. Wait until the “water balloon” effect has set in and then enjoy. You can either peel the skin or eat it, you’ll also find a few seeds which are not edible.
Stop by the fruit stand this weekend to pickup your black sapote along with other seasonal favs like sapodilla, canistel, and soursop 💚
