I read the above-referenced article about mangosteens in the nytimes last year and was dying to try one. The fruit guys at work hadn't even heard of them. I was in Harrod's a year ago and in the fruit display there was a sign that said Mangosteens. I told the lady I wanted one perfect mangosteen, and she said, reaching into the case and grabbing the sign, I'm sorry, we don't have any today.
