OMG. I FREAKING LOVE DURIAN!!! my grandpa and i always hid these from each other to keep the other one from finishing it off..

[Cuishi10]

Yeah, it doesn't smell like rotting flesh, a very pungant skunk scent, but it is sweet and I think it's wonderful to me because of the texture. It's nature's custard!! I love custard! I love the durian!

[kai85my]

from the way it looks. that one is not the best one. a good durian shouldn't be that 'fleshy'...

I am one of the only kids in my class who loves durian. Personally, I like the taste and texture. My parents were born in Indonesia and I grew accustomed to the flavor and the smell. My parents buy the fruit and open it themselves. In Indonesia, people put it in cake, and I really mean cake with frosting and that stuff. Different people have different tastes. Enjoy diversity :)

@vbm211 - thank you very much for the music info!

[oneyaker]

Anyone knows the name of the music. Listened to this as a kid and hear this for the first time in 30 years!

Thank you.

@oneyaker

It's "Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" done by Santa Esmeralda. But originally by Nina Simone!

I am vegetarian..and am very open to new fruits, have heard about this movie allot...and have seen it on TV allot...where did you guys get it from?

[vbm211]

Chinatowns, asian grocery stores...good luck!

[tehlinebeginstoblur]

I personally haven't ever had durian, but I'm guessing vegetarians and vegans from the WEST (which I am included in) might be more inclined to have taste buds that reject it (especially since you said it you even liked the smell!) due to our diets largely lacking in things of that texture and consistency, and also it's very high in fat, another thing that vegetarians (not all of course) tend to cut largely out of their diets. So it may have just had qualities you weren't used to.

I think everyone is brainwashed by Andrew Zimmern into thinking Durians are gross. It's all in the mind

[vbm211]

But I was so excited to try it! I was looking at it from Bourdain's view that it's amazing. It even smelled good to me. I tried. And I still respect this epic fruit.

[slamnxgirlxjulie]

what? i love the smell and durian is good if you pick the right ones..they taste sweet and kinda creamy..really good :) maybe it's just because i'm asian and i'm so use to it ..idk ;)

[Mitsukii13]

Oh and yea, its definitely better frozen. Less smell...

[Mitsukii13]

Haha, I had to eat it on a dare (cousins at family reunion, ah good times). Not that bad. Now balut, thats another story.

[AlvinTingyk]

Hey seriously, eating raw is better trust me. If you think my post is wrong, then i will tell you something. I am a Singaporean. And we Singaporeans worship durians. We love them!!!

[chhayjolly91]

i love eating this!..try it frozen..and it needs to be ripe..or try the ice cream

[oxbreathlessxo]

lmao she thought it smelled good? that's surprising. i want to try it now >_>

[hunterthecat11]

Hi vic it's your brother tj!

[threethirteen666]

[PewpewFighter]

Eat it when its cold. It will taste better.

[gofindyoursaint]

HAHAHAHHA

[liketadied]

just eat a mango thay are good

[bmwsux4]

Wonder if eating a miraclefruit berry will help with the taste?

[bmwsux4]

Take some dark french raost coffee and mash it into vicks medicated ointment and them put it under you upper lip and that may help.

I have tried durian, and once you get past them smell; its actually not that bad.

[deviltron1]

Yeah I thought they taste like shit to...Like rotten sweet garlic.

[QingTien]

yea...they shouldn't be bitter...is it firm or soft? It's better if it's soft, but if it's bitter than it might be too ripe lol.

I love them <3

If you hate the smell maybe try freezing the parts first and then eat it? It'll taste like durian ice cream =D!

[pronoobboy]

Bitter is actually better

BTW some durians Actually taste like X.O. the wine thing
