Salak from Bali tastes like a very firm pear-apple. The photos shown are great examples of fresh snake fruit. It’s a bit dry and slightly starchy but I enjoyed it very much. Avoid over-ripe snake fruit. You can tell it’s over-ripe if it’s soft or turning brown.

I tasted salak for the first time when I was in Yogyakarta earlier this year but didn’t quite like the taste. I think it takes some getting used to.

the fruit feels like…um, garlic when bitten. it’s more ’solid’ than apples and not squishy like rambutan. but i can’t think of any other fruit whose taste resembles the salak.

We don’t have them here in Pinas, and the fruit looks like durian to me, what’s the taste? Any fruit you can compare it here in Pinas?

Really exotic, I have seen that one before, sa mga imported fruits dito but I have not tried it, but now after seeing the image I guess it it delicious kaya lang ang laki naman ng buto hehehe.

God bless.
