Jessifly Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I don't have a specific question, just wondering what opinions are here on mangosteen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I think it is a good "fruit" but packaged in some sort of marketing ways that feels like a "scam" which is too bad, because I think it is a good fruit. A lot of exotic or super foods fall into this unfortunately. All of a sudden these exotic foods that are pretty good for us, just like common foods such as oranges and blueberries, become "must haves" and we "must pay a lot for them and tell all our friends" etc. That is just how I see it and like I said, it's too bad, since most are just good food sources for nutrition. Mangosteen often falls into that category as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcina Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Yeah, I'll stick with the locally grown berries. They're just as powerful, but I don't have to pay a fortune for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyre Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I would agree with you Robert. Buy organic local! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offense74 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 They're hard to find in good shape so I usually steer clear. I buy them sometimes though. I don't think they're exceptionally healthy though. Apples are just as good I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
