'somewhat' na I am still young :P But the times I am referring to are more or less a decade ago so nostalgia does creep in

The mere sight of the word "Kathal" conjures up memories formed by all 5 senses, from the taste to the touch to the smell*, in a way that "jackfruit" never does.

* I forgot to mention sound: the sound made when seperating a not-too-ripe kathal's segments is unlike any sound made by fruits.

My sincere apologies! I read someone else wrote it so i did too

But i couldn't agree more!

জাম জামরুল কতবেল
আতা কাঁঠাল নারকেল
তাল তরমুজ আমড়া
কামরাঙা বেল পেয়ারা
পেঁপে ডালিম জলপাই
বরই দিলাম আর কি চাই?
অবস্যই আম এবং লিচু।

When i was a kid i used to get confused with papaya and banana- if its a fruit or a vegetable. When it is green we can have in curry like vegetable and when ripened can have it directly like fruits. Well i got the answer but couldn't accept it then.

Z bhai i thought Jambura was Pomelo

[Zunaid]

Pomelo is a breed of grapefruit. Pomelos are a bit smaller and sweeter. Grapefruit has the distinctive slight bitter tatste.

I feel like an idiot coming into this thread and not knowing a bunch of fruits all of you are enjoying

[Rifat]

^^ That's because most of these fruits are found only in Bangladesh(Am I wrong? because I only found them in Bangladesh and nowhere else)
