have you ever eaten durian? i really like durian to me it smells very delicious but for people who don't like it they say it smells like fart or smelly socks haha ??, the texture of the durian flesh is creamy like custard with a taste like vanilla custard for those who don't like durian they say it tastes like a mixture of garlic, cheese and caramel.
eating this fruit excessively can raise your blood sugar and increase blood pressure
a few years ago my father's friend had high blood pressure and almost had a stroke because he ate a whole durian

We saw the fruit in Singapore but I couldn't stand the smell of it. But later I tried durian icecream and jam. They tasted so good..I bet that the fruit would also taste good.
Many people can't withstand the smell of ripe jackfruit but I love it.

if you like durian flavored food you will most likely like real durian fruit, I watched on youtube people usually prefer real durian over durian flavored food , do you think it smells really bad?
I like jackfruit too the smell is less potent than durian

@OneCandle I have not come across Durian very often. I just came across it once in Singapore and I could not stand the smell. It eas repelling. Maybe if I come across it more often, I might develop a tolerance for it.

I'm not a fan of Durian but I eat it. I usually like the durian candies or pastries. And yes, it has a foul smell that most people don't like.

@OneCandle I'd say yes, I enjoy eating durian flavored foods instead of eating the fruit itself.

Do you like durian flavored food more than the durian fruit itself? usually people like it the other way around , yes and very hard to get rid of the smell

what do you think it smells like? does it really smell bad to you? if you like durian but don't like the taste you have to cover your nose while eating it but your breath will smell like durian for a long time
