Never go to the store hungry they say..... I can attest to that, I always buy a bunch or random things. This is one of them. 
I saw them next to the dragon fruit, and could not stop laughing at the way they look. I usually will buy the exotic fruits when they come in, but have never seen one of these. Wikipedia said they are cultivated mostly in the Southeast Asia area with Thailand being the largest producer. One thing I did find interesting, they only grow them commercially within 12 to 15 degrees of the equator. I just cracked one open, and wow was pleasantly surprised. Inside it was like skinning a grape. It was pretty sweet and tasted good. I definitely will probably buy them again. If you get a chance grab some. I paid 1 usd for 2.

Whaaat? 1 usd for 2? 😮 Here in the philippines your 1 usd can already buy 1 kilo of it. But the good thing is you try something new in your life. They really look like balls but they surely taste good. :')

Ya thanks, for rubbing in that I got screwed on the price. It is clearly not native here. Ya and mine were definitely aged balls.

I had a coworker who brought them in to work once. They're really tasty. Now I need to go to the Chinese grocery store. They have lots of the "random things" you talked about. And you can't really go wrong with fruit!

I do love Rambutan too.
#visitaceh in Indonesia. You can get this much rambutan only for $1. Oh yeah, you can even get free fresh rambutan from the residents houses living nearby the #leuser area.
Thanks for sharing your story.
