Ok, the freshest, sweetest strawberries I’d had in a long time. They were doused in orange juice with bananas mixed in. Who knew I’d enjoy a fruit salad so much?!? 🍓🍓🍓 💕

One of few guilty pleasures of mine that seem to only be readily available in Thailand.

From a Muslim-Chinese store selling Bentong ginger products and a wide array of preserved fruit. These were my favorite of all the ones sampled.

A slight variation among their asam fruit range. I slightly prefer the rose prune one.

Got these off a lady on her bike from whom we weren’t expecting to get anything until she whipped these out from a secret compartment after a short chat. Reddit suggests they’re moondrop grapes but I’m not sure.

Encountered and tried tree grapes for the first time courtesy of tree grape lady by the river who was strangely parked far and away from the touristy area by the river in a quiet residential zone.

Refreshing.

Another souvenir from furflebear and another unique snack I'm encountering for the first time.

Chocolate Dipped Solar Dried Banana. Delish! But apparently not everyone likes this.

Never been disappointed by Australian strawberries!

I think these were jackfruit crisps which I got to snack on at a mini grocer built into the resto. They were as crispy good as they looked and sounded. As expected, they gave me gastritis, so the backup omeprazole wasn’t a paranoid hypochondriacal decision on my part.

Purchased from a roadside stall outside the farm. At RM 50/kg, of which I purchased 1 kg (although they really didn’t feel like they weighed all that much), these were smaller, softer, riper (and hence more concentrated in their flavor). I preferred their flavor but not their texture.

Straight from the producer. Or what’s left of it…

Rose apple slices with palm sugar to douse the raging fires in our mouths.

If you’ve always wondered what freeze-dried strawberry jam might taste like...

Light, crunchy and tasty. The best I’ve had so far in their banana range!

I had come with the sole intention to buy freeze-dried corn, but ended up buying these as well after sampling the shop’s other offerings.

Complimentary.

Fruity brekkie

Been a while since I had fresh strawberries at their source and certainly even longer since I had ones grown in Cameron Highlands. They’re nowhere near the exquisiteness of Japanese strawberries but they’ve definitely upped their game since their teeny tiny next-to-flavorless era.

Complimentary!

blush perino GOLD sweet snacking tomatoes. Premium-looking tomatoes purchased at a premium price (even after discount!!).

Also from furflebear but this time the dehydrated banana is dipped in Matcha.

Green Tea Dipped Solar Dried Banana

Fresh fruit to begin the day with.

At RM 125/kg, of which I purchased ~ 160 g worth, these were medium-sized and mild-moderately sweet.

They’re better than the ones I’ve had in recent memory but not good enough to warrant another purchase for the price.
