[Jared]

I just finished one whole month traveling through Borneo and found tons of fruit I've never had. Plenty more videos on the way.

Thanks for posting, Jared.  I had wondered what asam paya (Eleiodoxa conferta) tasted like -- I had heard it was sour so it is good to get this review.  Not sure if I will go out of my way to add this one.

Thanks, glad to share. Its definitely one to use for cooking or juice, if you want something you don't have to prepare, I'd stay clear of this one.

Beautiful palm fruits for sure!

The word 'Asam' is from the word 'Masam' which mean sour, any food/fruit with the word asam on it is sour.
Asam jawa = tamarind,  Asam kandis = Garcinia ??, Terung Asam = sour brinjal,  Asam laksa = Noodle in spicy sour soup
And thanks for the nice video.
