Many of us associate dragon fruit with Southeast Asia because of its prevalence in the region and the use of dragon fruit in some Thai recipes, but it actually has its origins in South America. The fruit is mostly made of water and makes for a great low-calorie snack; it's also a great source of fiber and vitamin C.
Boing Boing ran a taste test on dragon fruit and the comments are telling. I'm starting to see more of it in the local stores, so it will no doubt show up on more plates and probably some crossword puzzles, too.
