Kesusu

Description by @jominime

Kesusu is a rare Bornean fruit with traditional medicinal uses, including leaf decoctions for fever and digestive issues, fruit pulp for anemia and fatigue, and root extracts for detoxification and cough relief.
It is rich in Vitamin C, antioxidants, fiber, and potassium, which help manage cholesterol, improve heart health, and aid weight management.

described as sweet with a bit of sour and tasting faintly of banana.
its shelf life is measured in hours, which is why it stays a local forest treat and never went commercial.

timber: orange-red, hard, very durable, insect-proof, and water-resistant wood used for houses, bridges, and construction.
