Excuse while I laugh at the idea of platanos being strange fruits. Here, it's the cheaper and easiest one to find.
Lets see... I won't be able to translate most of the names because... they have no translation...
Lucuma, a green fruit (on the outside) with orange pulp on the inside. It's used for desserts and specially ice cream. It tastes amazingly good with chocolate so most of the desserts are a combination of the two. It's sweet and soft.
Camu-camu, a fruit from the Amazon that's a little hard to find on big cities. It's smaller than a golf ball, but has more vitamin C than two oranges... (or so they say...I just can say that it tastes pretty well)
And finally...lemons. No, really. What we call lemons here is the citric lemon, size of a golf ball, dark green and EXTREMELY extra sour. I've tasted one of those yellow lemons and they tasted like oranges to me.
