I don't think people get them because they are a hassle to peel (lychee and longan) for so little fruit to eat.
Eh.. I could be wrong though..
I love them though! That's all that matters! Others will just have to miss out
My dad has lychee and longan trees so we have plenty of our own to pick along with other awesome fruits.

Mangosteens are one of my favorites.
So the question remains: why aren't these fruits popular in America? Importing them is very easy.
By the way, durian may be nasty to you, but durian shake is my favorite drink.

I've gotta try that mangosteen, I've never seen it before but you guys make it sound good.
You guys should try dragonfruit. My grandma has a tree in her backyard and the fruit is sweet, has a great texture, and is thirst quenching.

1. as "king of the fruit", dragon fruit appears shining red and olive-shaped. Every single one is 500-1200g, and its flesh is white or red, tasted sweet but not thick, with light fragrance. The sweetness of dragon fruit is 16-18 degree, better than water melon. It can be called as "water melon on trees", considering about its structure, eating methd and planting way.
