I love durian. It's so good and creamy. Haha actually I love almost all of the tropical fruits because I live in Malaysia.
jambaJUICE
Lol. Durian candy smells bad. And tastes bad. sad.gif

pinch.gif

I never actually had the fruit though.

But with the candy, one time i offered some to my friend, and she just popped into her mouth, and then like 2 secs later shes all BLEGH and starts spitting.

Keke. Lame I know. But heyy, at least i shared something.

ohmy.gif QUEEN! OMG I LOVE DURIAN ICE CREAM TOO! We must be like, twins or something ;x

Seriously though, the ice cream is sooo good =D It's one of the few ice creams that actually DO taste alot like the fruit. Strawberry ice cream doesn't taste like strawberries to me. Pssh.

Anyway, I don't know why peopel hate it so much. Yea the smell does sorta smell funny, but I like it. Although my breath will smell like it for the rest of the day, it's sort of like eating garlic or something. The smell remains, even after brushing your teeth lol.

YAY DURIAN ICE CREAM!

I miss them =( I haven't gone to an Asian grocery store in ages...

LOL.

I don't know. I'm from Hong Kong and I don't really see its appeal. My aunt loves it a lot though, same with my dad.

Of course...it would help to try it...

What pisses me off is the ignorance some people have. I was watching Fear Factor, and they had to eat either durian or hundred-year-old eggs <--(so good). Everyone totally freaked out...

Geez, get out there and stuff some raw fish in your mouth and GET OVER IT.
nexuskpl
ewww...durian tastes like...what laundry that's been left in the washing machine smells like...
crash57
ate it once... i was freaked out by the way it smelt, but after i ate it, it was okay.
gothicvengeance
Argh. I hate it. Just smelling it makes me want to throw up, and that won't work with me if I try to eat it and all. -_-
smilePiNAYstyle
i remember the first time my nanay ate it at my house. it smelled like fart =X my family`s been trying to get me to eat it by saying - "it tastes like ice cream" mmhmmm.
emptyminded
If I don't smell it it's okay.. but when it's "fresh" off the skin.. Ew.. Stanky.
miss barnes
i guess its an "asian thing", but anyways what in the world it DURIAN?

oh nvm i see the picture of it
weirdness
eww. no.

it smells so bad >.<... i dont even want to try to taste it.
xxbaby_dragonxx
I love Durian the fruit itself. It's the king of fruit in Malaysia. WE RULE =)
jennyjenny
Well, my friend brought one in for a social studies project once...
and me and her were the only asian poeple in our class...

so my teacher cuts it open.. and everyone was freaking out and how it smelt...
and then he did it all wrong... and then he gave everyone a LITTLE piece to try...
and me and my friend were the only people to eat it...

And yeah, it smells lke crap.
angel-roh
durian? wow i never heard of that... sounds like they name it after duran duran =O
Ange1onCloud9
My whole family loves eating it, but I don't really like it.

Durian does have this smell...........which some ppls love and others hate it.

I don't like Durian, my frd gave me durian candy once, and I was like @__________@" erk....this doesn't taste good.....

In HK, the durian's smell is really strong!!! But in Australia where I live, they don't smell at all for some reason................................I don't plan on eating durian again.....

This situation of durian is just like stinky tofu. Some ppls that like eating stinky tofu thinks it smells nice, where the smell is suffocating to other ppls! I haven't eaten stinky tofu, I don't even want to go near the stand!
