you are like the steve irwin of fruits
aww thanks!
did you encounter the Tambagisa fruit that can neutralize toxins in the body! small red purple berries .
Ly yamamoto this is the best comment ever
lets hope he doesnt eat the wrong part of ackee
I’ve really enjoyed these two videos. I had heart surgery a few months ago and they help relax me. Have you ever thought about a show on bayberry fruit? It’s also called wax myrtle and I think I heard you can eat the berries.
I can't stop watching you
I absolutely love your opening intro. I love the song and the images; it's one of my favorite parts of your videos!
So nice to hear that! Thanks :)
My mans real life snagging the fruit I see him with hickeys.
Been binge watching these videos it’s really making me sad that I didn’t watch them as they were coming out I feel like I missed a whole journey
much more journey to come!
i wish you could also try, ice cream bean, cashew nut fruit!
Cashew fruit is coming soon :). Ice cream bean... I'll look for it this winter in S. America!

1) Sir, your videos are highly addictive .
2) This particular one has inspired a travel bucket list entry... an old dude, his (now) tiny baby... in full hazmat suits.... one day like 10 years from now.
3) Question: HAVE you ever come down with an illness endemic to some of these areas/had an allergic reaction to any of these fruits?
Thanks again for your inspiring films.
Thanks! the worst I've gotten is food poisoning a couple of times, thankfully nothing too terrible.
Araçá boi is a very common fruit here in Amazon florest.
Takes a bite
Mosquito: also takes a bite. 😩
I nearly died when I saw those baskets of grubs.
The bitter gourd/ karaila vegetable seeds are like this when they are ripened. There are small karaila that can fit in your palm( like the Gak).
I laughed so hard (before my battery dies or I do ) you are really fun to watch jared , thanks for sharing your adventures
Thanks!
I've just about watched all of your videos soooo... I might take a break from this channel unless maybe... you could make a schedule where you upload more?
I upload a new video every Sunday :)
@ time 6.49 I spotted a smiley face on your fruit. It was sharing a happy moment with you!! I thought I should share, I absolutely love your realism and your connection to the viewer. I know you are about the foods but I also love to see the culture and markets that you show. I have also wondered if you would get into eating the flowers of things. I would recommend that you do your research into that FIRST before you try them. I found out after the fact as a kid some are not really good for you to eat. Where others are really really wonderful to eat. I would like to send you some that I know are safe and nice for you to try. Would you be able to reply and let me know an address or something that I could send them to you over night when they are in season? I would also like to send you with a list of books that I think you might like for plants native that have many many things to them. I love Yarrow but I can not get past that astringent bitter taste. yet it is an antiseptic for wounds and a quick stop for blood, and with the small pink tubers you can make a tea that helps digestion for those that struggle with some issues. PLWASE let me know. I love your channel and have shared it with my dietitian and friends. I even was able to try Jag fruit with a friend that has thyroid issues. She did not have much but she did feel a difference with the next day. Once again thank you so much for everything you do. I would like to know if you have the same rare genetic condition called Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. It affects the elasticity of your skin and joints. I used to have a blast with people trying to tie me into knots that I "could not" get out of. No one was able to knot me up on myself to not be able to undo. lol I also wonder about your esophagus with that amazing sword eating trick.
I tried a similar fruit in Florida, called balsam pear. I found them growing wild, didn't know what they were at the time, so I only tried a little nibble. I remember the red seeds were sweet, not much flavor. Don't remember what the orange flesh was like, either sour or bitter, I think. This was over 20 years ago, so a bit hazy.
That is one weird variety of Gac, ive never seen any without bumps all over them. Searched for it and found nothing.
BTW Gakk fruit is a type of passion fruit.
Gac Fruit is Momordica Cochinchinensis, the fruit you reviewed looks like Momordica Balsamina, same genus ( obviously ) in the cucurbitaceae family ( Melons, cucumbers etc.)
Wow, I hope you didn't get dengue fever. Did you?
Thankfully no, but I was honestly worried
@@WeirdExplorer it's shit apparently, not so bad the first time but then you are primed. If you get it again, it's miserable, maybe even life threatening. Or so I've heard..
The momordica might be momordica denticulata. The one image online has a smooth and roughed skin fruit and I can't find any other references, however.
Wow this is awesome! I'm going to Borneo in October maybe I'll get to try kesusu on my list too! Thanks for sharing ❤️
Gak that don't kill you, will only make you stronger!
we have Momordica here in Florida. From what I've been told, it's only safe to eat when it's still green.
I've only seen it for sale orange and ripe, so I'm pretty sure its alright. But maybe the rind is edible green?
I think it might depend on the kind of Momordica also. www.eattheweeds.com/bitter-gourd-balsam-pear-pharmacy-on-a-fence/ is a good article on the ones we have here. Edible rind when green, and the red flesh around the seeds is edible, but the inner seeds are toxic.
I actually snagged a few burst pods today to plant in my yard. I'm excited about it!
They're from the genus of melão-de-são-caetano that have been brought from Africa to Brazil by slaves.
Famous last words I'm sure a lil bit won't hurt me
fun fact dengue, zika and chikungunya fever mosquitoes bit during the day some make sure you use DEET repellant during the day and you'll be fine
ah, that's good to know!
Kesusu Looks Like Rose Apples
You don't travel with bug spray over there?
I left it at the hotel...
+Jared Rydelek I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing them!!
thanks James!
If you ask local how they protect them self from dangi threre is many type of drink i remeber it was test bad and have mark like 3 cicle on it and some type of hot spiece food if you try it keep mosqet not like to bit you I stay in malaysia for 6 months
Wow🤩 this is a whole new level 🤩🤩🤩🤩
have you ever tried kesusu after it?
The seed reminds me on Lakritz (liquorice)
Have you ever seen the Grape Tree? Would love to know how that tastes. (The tree that has grapes growing on its trunk)
Yes thats Jaboticaba, I have a couple videos on my channel about them
Areca boi is the goodest boi
🤣
Hey! That's my hometown 😍😍
jajajaja too crazy! as always cool video!
sabah is part of Philippines! Tenum is counterpart of Word Tanim means plant in Tagalog.
Sabah is East Malaysian Borneo. It is very close to the Philippines but a different country.
Even if tanim means plant, those fruits are not there, i know that since i'm Filipino.
What dates were you @ Tenom??????
This was a few years ago, in february I think.
Ahh the bitttergourd,used as vegetable worldwide rarely sold ripe
Dengue is not a nice thing to catch. I went to Cairns, Australia at the beginning of this year and I am still having swollen glands and not feeling totally well even now in December.
I would like to see a comprehensive review of the best PUM-mel-o's in the Borneo, Sarawak, Bali sort of area and also the Pummelos, or the Thai word, so-MO! the Somo's of Thailand, including Thong Dee and perhaps some glance at Japan's Hirado Buntan. I'VE never tasted a Pummelo myself that holds a candle to the Tahitian so-called "Pamplemousse" which means grapefruit in French, but which is clearly the best, not grapefruit, but pummelo, in the world, I daresay the very best CITRUS fruit in the world, but which few have ever really savored the way it should be savored and famed for its extreme quality, often the size of a bowling ball, with soft, juicy limeade tasting segments that can be spooned out like a grapefruit's instead of cut around through the surrounding thick pith of your IMHO inferior pummelos...because actually there is remarkably scant pith to deal with on this so called 'Mauna Lua" pummelo as the botanists list it or seem to list it. I await your comprehensive investigation to once and for all clear up all mysteries now surrounding the world's pummelos.
I saw pomelo quite a bit while traveling throughout SE asia. Especially since I was usually there during Chinese New Year. Honestly the couple times I tried it, it was subpar.
To me the first fruit looks a lot more like the fruit of passiflora caerula than anything in the momordica family, especially since their key feature tends to be spiky-ness. Although I do not think caerulea gets that large, maybe some from of caerulea and giant granadilla hybrid as I know the giant granadilla's seeds look quite like that. Do you know what the plant you got it off of looked like? If it was a vine, and more specifically if it was a vine with waxy leaves with three "prongs" then I'd assume it's in the passiflora family.
it does look a bit like the Passiflora caerulea, but yeah the fruit and seeds are too big and the seed shape looks very similar to gac. I've never had giant granadilla, but from photos the seeds look quite different. There are other momordica species that don't have bumps on them.
wow tenom sabah~
That's a great Gac fruit variant find!!! Did you save the seeds, Jared?
Against the rules of the park I left them where I found the fruit
those were precious...
Yeah... I looked into bringing seeds back and ran into a lot of red tape. Might do it for my next trip.
Dangy Mosquitoes?
I wish i can try fruits like you. I'm a fruit freak and I'm currently studying in malaysia but the problem is that I'm living in cyberjaya and I can't find any rare and strange fruits, and I don't have time to travel around
There aren't any wet markets near cyberjaya? If you get a day off, take a trip to the chow kit market in KL. Lots of vendors around there. Otherwise there might be a cold storage supermarket, they sometimes get some interesting stuff.
+Jared Rydelek sadly no. Nearest bazaar is at putrajaya and they only have the common fruits. And the only "unique" fruit i can find is durian.
+Fahad Alam Shah That's a shame. I know the feeling though. I was working at genting. It was like being stuck in a mall.
Araca boiiiiiii
My contury is here
So, did you get Dengue?
thankfully no!
Did you see any Bornean Hairy Banana (Musa Hirta) in Borneo?
no! it looks really interesting though.
If this is not an alien fruit, i don't what is it.
Jared, maybe you should formally find translators and split the monetization with them. Maybe also register and upload your own behind the firewall of China. This is something to interest people everywhere.
First one:"cundeamor"....litlle seed are edible.
at times you have the Dr. Daniel Jackson look :-)
Hi Jared I appologize for translating some of your videos into chinese and shuttled them to a chinese video sharing website since you dont get youtube in china. your monstera deliciosa video fetched 29k plays and the jianbing one 31k. Sorry for doing so without your permission, but I want you to know that you also get fans in china. thanks a lot.
hmm.. could you send me a link?
+Jared Rydelek sure you are not gonna sue me? www.bilibili.com/video/av6013044
+manihot Well... no. But are you making money off them?
+Jared Rydelek no, my only benefit is practicing my translating/interpreting skill on your videos.
BOII
go to mexico!! theres so much fruit you'll probably enjoy!!!!
How about "screw pine" I have heard of it before on those "rare" fruit lists.
I've seen them growing, but haven't had the opportunity to try it yet. They're crazy looking
Jared Rydelek Yes, I agree.
what is your favorite fruit? :)
Depending on my mood... achacha or roliniia. :)
+Jared Rydelek thx for answering :) I wish, I could have a change to eat those fruits.
I was hoping he'd say apple.
You should taste the actual coffee berry.
I had it once, it just tasted like a green twig. Maybe it wasn't ripe?
What color was it?
red, but it was rock hard
Are you fruitarian?
nope, vegetarian though
it is gac fruit not granadilla!
Yeah it was mislabeled, I say this in the video
Well, gac is bumpy and that was not, but it looks nothing like granadilla, but since it grows on a vine and its leaves look like a bitter melon's, it could be a family member.
My mans real life snagging the fruit I see him with hickeys.
LMFAOOOOOOOO
