Marang

The Marang fruit or also called Johey Oak is native to some parts of Southeast Asia such as in Mindanao, Philippines. 
It's similar to Jack fruit and Durian based on its appearance but not as intense when it comes to the smell. The ripened marang turns into brownish in color and will fall off into the ground.
The fruit has a sweet creamy taste and the seeds itself is also consumable when boiled or roasted. During the Kadayawan festival in Davao, one of the abundant fruits that floods the streets is the Marang. I call it "The seeds of sweets."
