Durian – the world’s smelliest fruit but to some the most amazing and tastiest. The odor has been described as a cross of dirty festering gym shoes, garbage, onions, and turpentine.
Have you tried it and if you did what did you think? Would you try it? The fruit is supposed to taste like a custard with undertones of almonds.
Me? I could never bring myself to try it as a kid. The smell was very off putting and I would run away as soon as the “aroma” hit my nostrils. There are many people braver than myself!
