1.Dragon fruit
This fruit is sweet to the taste and the pulp itself is also rather creamy. It is certainly a nice fruit to eat, but it does look rather strange on the outside and perhaps this is what is putting a lot of people off giving it a go although it is crazy to do that as it is actually very nice inside.
2.Lychee
The lychee is very high in vitamin C and it is something that you are starting to see appearing in more supermarkets on a more regular basis. It is a bit like a grape when it comes to the texture, but the taste is certainly quite pleasant and you can understand why more people are buying them as soon as you give them a go.
3.Passionfruit
Even though it may look horrible and disgusting there is no doubt that more people are enjoying passion fruit. This fruit is so adaptable as you can eat it as it is or add it to drinks, puddings, and even make ice cream out of it. You will see it in most supermarkets now and it is also not that expensive either.
4.Jackfruit
This is the biggest fruit from a tree in the entire world as it can actually end up weighing as much as 80 pounds. This is the national fruit of Bangladesh where they absolutely love it although when it comes to the actual taste of it, then it is seen as being quite starchy, so it may not be to your own particular tastes.
5.Aguajefruit
This fruit is from the Amazon and it is not only popular as a fruit, but also as a wine when it is fermented. It is full of vitamins and the only difficult part is trying to get rid of the red scales on the outside to get to the rather lovely tasting fruit on the inside.
6.Cherimoya
This fruit was first brought to our attention by Mark Twain and it is said that it tastes like a cross between a banana and a pineapple, so it is not only exotic in how it looks, but also in how it tastes. This fruit has moved on from being grown just in the Andes to being spread throughout various countries thanks to its increase in popularity.
7.Langsat
This is a small fruit from Asia, but it is now starting to make some in-roads in the US after it was introduced to Hawaii a number of years ago. You need to make sure that they are ripe because if they are not then you are going to be hit with this real sour taste whereas when ripe they are perfectly sweet and an absolute delight to eat.

8.Mangosteen
This fruit is described as being sweet and peachy by different people and there is no doubt that it does look a bit different as can be seen here.

9.Miracle fruit
This primarily comes from West Africa and the reason as to why it is called a miracle fruit is because it takes something sour and makes it taste sweet. It does this by playing around with your taste buds, but it only tricks them as it does not change how it hits your stomach.
