If you are up for a challenge, then do consider putting this into your list to try in the future when you are visiting Southeast Asia next time. There is no middle ground for this fruit. You either love it or hate it to the core. There is no such thing as growing to love it. This is how this fruits work. I have never heard someone who said they grow to love it or grow to hate it.
It is a fruit of Love at first Taste or Loathe at first Taste. I saw this hilarious representation of this King of fruits that it is so stinky that it melted all the clothes and everything from 20km away. While this fruit is not going to melt away anything, I can't possibly send it to any country because this is going to be deemed as weapon of destruction.
Just look at those thorns and the smell are sure getaway for the custom to think that I am sending you some sort of mass weapon!
More pictures.
There are many food made with this King of fruits-donuts, ice cream, cookies, chocolates, cakes and even mooncake. Unfortunately, if you hate it then you are sure to have your head spinning every time you came across Durians.
I am lucky to like it or else I think I will be suffering when my family members or anyone eats Durians. Durian is not something that you can hide the smell so the house next door can smell it. If you like the smell, it smells like creamy sweet flowery jam but if you hate, it sure smell like rotten garbage truck. I don't have any ideas how the mechanics of smells works for Durians but that is how it is. A friend who hate it at the first sight puke non stop for the whole night after eating a little of the flesh.
The flesh really depends on the varieties of Durians. It is not a cheap stuff here even if you hate it. The Musang King (Fox King) varieties is so expensive that I can't afford it with my poor pay. It is not easy to get it too as it is mostly exported to Hong Kong and to China. Musang King got its name from being very cunning. It did kill someone by dropping the fruits on top of someone's head. You can only collect the fruits at night.
There are some rules to eating this fruit. You are supposed to drink some water from the rind of the Durian fruits to avoid having fever which is true. Avoid it when you are having fever or headaches or else it will make it worse. People who have a cold or is always having cold feet is very much welcome to eat it because it will cure the cold instantly. It is considered a hearty fruits for those who have a 'cold' body if you can eat it without puking non stop. Also, do not eat this fruit while drinking alcoholic drink or you will just die of heart attack if you are unlucky.
A fruit eaten to avoid vampire since you need a wooden stake to open the fruits. *I am just joking* It is hilarious to cut through Durian with a big saw.
So, here is the fruit of the season of Durians. Have you eaten this King of Fruits? Do you have a fruit that you like to eat?
