What are your experiences with durian?

We have lots of durian here in the Philippines.. I love durian so much..I love the smell and specially the taste of the fruit. Some are not really like the smell..Really you also love durian? I like the native one because it has a sweet taste and it's so yummy..The time that i was pregnant, i buy whole of it, and i sit on the corner, eating and eating and eating..lol

I hate durian.. I don't like its taste and smell.

i enjoy durian when being chilled or even frozen , its really like an ice cream . so creamy and milky . . .. there are a lot of variety to enjoy the different softness , texture or being juicy and milky type . the native are kind a bitter but so sweet and aromatic , kyani , D24 and other family it came so great fresh fruit or candies , pie , chips and ice cream .

I like Durian. Actually it was my mom who had bad experience with Durian. It was the Durian season, and my family bought 4 durians. My mother eat a lot, more than any my family member. then she suddenly felt sick, her temperature raised and she felt a headache. She got fever. But it's not too long. Abut 2 hours of sleep she's back to normal. In Indonesia we called that situation "mendhem" or translated as drunk ! LOL

That when the time that i am pregnant. I remember the time that i really want to eat durian. So, i go to downtown, where lots of durian are being sell.. I bought a big one, i sat on a corner and i can feel the smell and the taste of durian.. Yummy!!! it makes me feel that i'm in heaven while eating durian.. I love durian so much..

Almost everyone is in the extreme, either hate or love durians. I am the weird one who is actually neutral :D I do not crave durians, but if I see my friends eating, I will join in. Now there are too many durian sellers in Singapore, they even have to go door to door selling. Poor vendors.

I love durian and eating them is a great experience to me. when i was in Ssarawak, i find that when the durian season comes i will see some small hill of durian at the market and we can even buy the durian with a very cheap price - which can be up to .0125$ (0.50 RM).

we so many variety of durians in my country.Local variety is very rich which different taste,colour,size and form.Very interesting to taste this fruit.Monthong Durians from Thailand is available to in my country,it's big size durians.I like this variety too.

Some durians are yellow and some are pale yellow. I love those from Thailand because they are more yellow. My grandfather used to be really good at choosing durians just by smelling it. Normally, if my dad buys durians, not all are great. My grandfather will buy all good durians. He sells vegetables and I wonder how he get that special nose. Pity, he left us when I was 11.
