Here in Dhaka, Bangladesh, they are an unusual but welcome find in the market; I’ve found them 3 times this year. The first time they were a beautiful royal purple spheres, with a very enigmatic taste. The second batch were paler, not as strong tasting or smelly, but included one that was yellow, though otherwise similar. This last time they still have the characteristic hairiness, but less taste, no odour, were rusty brown in colour and not spherical but shaped like rugby balls. The tastiest so far were the purple ones, and I have a theory that strength of smell is an indicator of taste, but more research is needed!

duhat
balimbing
and other childhood trees we use to eat.

@victor I like the idea to study mabolo for medicinal use.
