mabolo fruit is not familiar in our place but there’s one grown tall in a neighboring barangay. ‘curious about how it taste, i’ve tried to blenderize it adding a bit sugar(or honey), lemon and milk and plenty of ice… wow, it taste like guyabano shake!

We have a mabolo tree in our yard and it’s a very old one, being there since my Dad’s younger days. Since it has grown so tall (more than 3 stories high), when in season, he’ll just wait daily for any fruit to fall. Not for everyone’s palate, but I’d say It tastes good and sweet when properly ripened and you have to place it in a covered bowl so it doesn’t “odorize” other contents of the fridge. Langka, durian and marang would do that to a higher degree(imagine having mabolo flavored butter).

So how close is this to a Durian? Now, with all this decriptions… I don’t think I would even try.

I have not tried Mabolo but I remember that my Aunt and Uncle had a tree but vaguely remember it being red. I thought Mabolo was brown.

A couple or so years ago, I bought some mabolo for my mother when I happened to be at Clark, Pampanga. It was my first time to see the and smell the fruit. I haven’t acquired the taste for it but maybe in due time. My mom identifies the mabolo as the local apple. She really loves it!

I remember mabolo. There was this mabolo tree in one of the churches in my hometown. Most children would usually stone down the fruits. And rub the fruit in the grass to remove the tiny balahibos. I remember the texture it like velvet for me actually. Hehehhe. But it is an acquires taste its either you like it or not. The smell is like something is rotting of some sort. Childhood memories!!

true, I know what Mabolo is because we have a tree in the province but at first I really thought that its cheese in red wax. You got me there Marketman. :)

Is this a new variety? I remember having ones that have smoothed surfaces and not segmented and kind of plum shaped although much bigger. This is one fruit that smells and tastes like it, euwww!
There must be a way to eat them without having facial contortions!
