What kind of tree is this (link)? Is this fruit edible?

That fruit almost loooks like mangosteen.
Hmmm. Considering mangosteen trees only grow near the equator and are
quite temperature sensitive, it likely is not.
I think that Sheldon might have had his tongue firmly in his cheek when he
suggested a mangosteen. The pic of the fruit was so obvioulsy not a
mangosteen that he had to be pulling our legs.
