Thank you, Triloba.
You know what's funny? I haven't actually tried a lychee or rambutan yet. I may end up liking them, too, but there will always be a special place in my heart for longan. The longan I had fresh in Thailand doesn't even compare to what I can find in the local Asian markets... so far, 95% of those have been well past their prime. They taste a lot different when they are "over ripe". I hope you have the opportunity to try fresh picked longan some time in the future. Your "not crazy about" might just change to "crazy for."
