NOTES: Dragon Fruit

Dragon Fruit
In Vietnam, one of my favorite fruit is Thanh Long, otherwise known as Dragon Fruit. I thought the origin was Southeast Asia since Vietnam was where I first saw the fruit, but it turns out the fruit is from Central America. If so, why is the dragon fruit available here so crappy?

Dragon Fruit has the same texture as a kiwi, but a very delicate flavor. Not as sweet when it's ripe, nor as bitter when it's not ripe. If you encounter this fruit at your local grocer (probably Central Market or Hong Kong Market), I don't recommend that you buy it. I've bought at least three at stupid prices and none of them had the sweetness of the fruit in Vietnam

Is there any way you could enable RSS feeds on your blog? I've been reading for a while, but it would be a little easier if I could add it to my reader.

well, with two reader requests, I have finally added a feed. I don't know if it's RSS or the tech behind it. I used feedburner. If it doesn't work for you please comment here and I'll try to fix it.
