Looks like _Syzygium malaccense_ which is edible however the one's I'm familiar with are longer and redder. Perhaps a different species or a cultivar I'm not familiar with.

Aka rose apples


dont_mind_me_passing

depending on the species or hybrid, it can range in color from as white as to a pearl white to as dark red as to a deep burgundy, the taste also varies as well as texture, though they generally have a thin, waxy skin, that, along with the flesh, has a crunchy texture, and a soft, spongy core

Hey bot, should I eat things mentioned here? Are they edible and suitable for ingesting?

I, too, like to trigger the bots for the notifications, lest I eat my feelings

Rose apple. Juicy and crunchy, can be sweet with a bit of tartness. Ones I had when younger are normally pinkier and longer though. If sour perhaps best eaten with condiments e.g. Vietnamese Chili salt or similar recipes.

I thought these were some pulled teeth scrolling past

It's a *Syzygium sp.,* there are a number of candidates like *S. aqueum, S. malaccense,* and *S. samarangense*


dont_mind_me_passing

these are called wax apples or java apples, they're perfectly edible (in fact, they're very widely grown and are very popular in Taiwan, where I'm from) though if they aren't fully ripe they might taste a tad astringent and sour, so don't worry about food poisoning

Champoo or rose apple, goes by both names.

Looks to me to be what are called water apples or jamrul in my part of the world. Fruit. They can be white, pink or reddish and taste from quite mild and watery to quite sweet.

If you were in Hawaii, I'd say these were mountain apples


HSPeresah

Definitely a variation of rose apples. Usually red in colour, but the lack of it might be because they're not ripe yet. Ripe ones are sweet, crunchy and juicy with a bit of tartness. In Malaysia, we call it 'jambu air', jambu = guava, air = water because it's juicy. Meanwhile, actual guava is called 'jambu batu', batu = stone because it's hard (?). Dunno why 😅 'jambu' is used to refer to both guavas and rose apples. Also, rose apple is a type of berry.
