I went to the fruit shop today, Mangosteen html was 29 yuan a pound, which was a lot lower than in previous days. I felt ecstatic, and decisively bought it for 20 yuan. I had just paid my salary for this month last night.
I don’t have much experience in choosing mangosteens. I just remember to pick soft ones with as many petals as there are petals under the skin.
As a result, I went home full of joy and opened it. I found that the pulp was all bad, some were hard, some were transparent, and some looked like they were frozen by ice cubes.
is like this every time, spending money to pay IQ tax. You really can’t buy fresh mangosteen here.
and the fruit shop owner are old acquaintances, and there is no way he could lie to me. The goods are new and feel soft to the touch.
There is still a problem of transportation and preservation. I remember when I traveled to the south, mangosteens were sold individually, regardless of the weight. The old man carried a load and hawked along the street for fifty cents each. The flesh was as white as snow and tasted fresh and refreshing. He and his son ate a dozen of them in one go.
You can’t buy such fresh mangosteen here even at a big price.
I really want to go to the south and eat all kinds of fruits, which are fresh and cheap.
lychee, mango, pineapple...
