Dragon Fruits

Dragon Fruit is the fruit from the cactus tree.


I've know this fruit (PITAYA) time ago long, but just tasted it in Bangkok. Here we can easily find dragon fruit anywhere.

Above is the pitaya tree, I mean just see the background. I don't have the tree-only pic, so sorry.

There are 2 kind of dragon fruits in Bangkok, red-fleshed and white-fleshed. The white one is more common than the red ones. I prefer the red ones as it is more delicious, but the color is bloody bloody red, sooooo red!
