although they seem to give you so many benefits to the body, i feel like they are soo expensive. I've only eaten it once and that one fruit my aunt bought cost her five bucks! I dont think its worth it, even if they give you those benefits.

it is somewhat expensive..oh well..
it reminds me of kyouya from ouran high school host club..
and he was explaining the benefits of eating dragon fruit..heehee..
(i had to point that out..)

It's not too expensive if you buy frozen. I live in CA and it's 2.99 for a pair.

i remember eating them all the time in vietnam bc it's so cheap.
it tastes really good too so i'm not surprised it's expensive here lol

Its really cheap in Vietnam...I remember driving past rows and rows and rows of dragon fruit trees. Its a lot more expensive in the states though, even if buying them frozen. I can hardly ever find them in stores!

They are delicious though...<3
