A fruitful find!

Freshly gathered durians (yep, those thorny and pungent smelling fruit) and sweet sourish yellow lanzones (langsat) for sale at a fruit stand in Penang.

 

The heavy durian fruit is never plucked or harvested from the trees that bear them - when they fall to the ground, they're ripe enough for consumption. πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘

 

The family members on the right are likely visitors from out of town, who stopped by to have their fix of the King of Fruits. This spot has somewhat become a tourist trap and the fruit vendors are known to overcharge visitors by quoting prices arbitrarily.
