Got to smell #Durian this morning, a contented, quite-enough-pudding-for this-evening smell, and now I nose that no matter how crappy things get locally somewhere someone is happily eating durian.

Fruit of a Durian (Durio zibethinus) spotted at Dairy Farm Nature Park, Singapore on 21 Dec 2024. No, I didn't try to sneak it home to eat.

A couple three decades ago, I got a durian shake at a chinese restaurant and shared it with my friend. They brought it out in a styrofoam cup with a lid and straw, to limit the spread of the smell.

We'd take turns taking slurps, trying to be open-minded really give it an enthusiastic try, smiling optimistically, then grimacing involuntarily.

To me, the smell was like rotting onions and ripe diapers.

Hours later, each time I burped I would almost burst into tears.

Asking for a friend... What is the best way to speed up the aging process of a Durian?

I have a roommate. Should I bring home #durian anyway?

My wife got a durian AirPod case hehe

I didn't even know this place exists in #Malaysia! A homestay where you can eat to your heart's content up in the mountains and be surrounded by cats too
Can always trust this YouTuber to film the most interesting vlogs.

PS: While the YouTuber is from China, the others are Malaysian and one Singaporean Chinese. The wife commented that her husband is a person because he can only speak Cantonese.

China's taste for durian — a fruit typically the size of a rugby ball that can emit an odor so powerful, it is banned from most hotels — is reshaping the economy in Southeast Asia. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/06/17/asia-pacific/china-durian-fortunes-southeast-asia/ #asiapacific #china #durian #southeastasia #malaysia #thailand

@yurnidiot

context:

catching #durian in the #philippines

it's an extremely heavy fruit, a hit to the noggin is definitely life threatening

it also has lots of big spikes, that's how it catches in the burlap

just found out that although you're not allowed to import fruit into the EU, there are exceptions for pineapple, dates, coconut and... #durian

missed opportunity, already miss that spiky boi

@amin @sotolf

I guess mango was the closest fruit I had to compare it with. The freeze-dried #durian was just kinda mushy (once reconstituted), but in a pleasant way. I'm guessing that's what's meant by "custardy."

My latest bout of insanity:

Acquiring a taste for #durian.

I bought some freeze-dried durian from Costco, and grew to rather like it.

Next I'll see if I can buy a small amount of the real thing at an Asian store.
