Asian supermarket?
Are you forbidden by law not to mention the store and where it is?

It is not, but there are multiple locations selling it.  You are in cerrito, the 99 ranch supermarket in Cerritos might carry it.

I don't know where it is imported from, there is no label.  Last year imported from Mexico.
$12.99/lb

I just picked up a few bags, also no label.  Plus I found some pummelo and guava types I haven't tried before.

They are nicer than ones I got last year but still about 1/3 of the ones I opened have some browning/deterioration inside.

I always plant the seeds but they never grow, I assume they are irradiated

Yep mangosteen considers the queen of all the fruits, my most favorite.  I ate 3 kilograms at on sitting back in Thailand. It only cost just under a dollar during its season.
