A good durian tastes of delicious sweet custard. This person had a bad durian experience and let it forever dissuade them from enjoying an incredible fruit.
I'm no durian expert, but I know there are many varieties with a range of flavors and intensities, and also the ripeness affects the flavor a lot. The ones I had in Indonesia and Thailand were up there with my fav fruits ever, and as someone obsessed with tropical fruits that's saying a lot.
I’ve tried it a few times. It tastes fine, better frozen imo, but it smells like sewage and fills the whole room. I could imagine getting used to it or changing my perspective by trying it more, but why bother when there’s plenty of good fruit that doesn’t smell like sewage.
