This fruit was taken in a Singapore market in October 2012. It is said to be edible, eaten raw, cooked or pickled.

Details of the tree is not known.
Can you please ID this

Zyziphus ??

I think this is Manilkara zapota (sapodilla)

Seems too small for Manilkara zapota

Also looks dry, Zizyphus seems likely choice.
