Alien Fruit

from http://blog.hotelclub.com/10-must-try-exotic-fruits/

"Dragon fruit, strawberry pear or pitaya is a fruit of several cactus species with a sweet delicate taste and creamy pulp. The most common dragon fruit is the red pitaya, but other varieties include the Costa Rica pataya and the yellow pataya. Juice or wine can be obtained from the fruit, while the flowers can be eaten or used for tea."

I first had this in Malaysia in 2006 (very tasty and grows in my inlaws' yard!).  While not native to Malaysia, it was transplanted there long ago and now thrives and is sold commerically.
