It's not stinkiest, but has the strongest aroma/smell compared to other fruits. You can't compare the smell with other things. Durian is in it's own league. I love durians so much even the king of jungle 🐯 eats durian.

[@dariusstemmet8742]

i think everyone should try Durian at least once in their life.. but yes! choose the sweet and creamy one!

[@intheworldofmari]

Darius Stemmet i agree 100%!

Thank you for the tip.. I will remember for next time :)

[@GluttonBudTV]

The guy expression in the lift!!! LOL! and your expression after the first bite!!!! LOL!!! I really love Durian but it getting more and more expensive now~ love your video and hope to see your new post soon 🌺🌺🌺

[@anthonylim4674]

Well done for trying the durian fruit. When I was a young kid i hated it and will gag everytime i smell it. But hey the more you try it, it grows in you. For beginners I always thought the “red prawn” was the easiest to eat as it is very sweet. Maybe you should try if the crave comes huanting you! Hahahaha...

[@intheworldofmari]

Hahah thanks Anthony! Yeah it really is a smell and taste that grows on you 😂

[@LoongAqua]

You are expressive and you smile easily. Great personality.

I would recommend the sweet ones like red prawn, golden phoenix or mao shan wang to beginners to win them over. Also not recommend buying the cheapest ones to win them over.

Durian is definitely an acquired taste and one just needs to persevere. I’d kill for some now, but because of the pandemic, I can’t visit Singapore and indulge in this King of Fruits. I hope to be able to in the not too distant future.

[@intheworldofmari]

One definitely has to persevere and keep trying. Durian grows on you 🤤 hopefully our borders will open soon!🙏🏻🙏🏻

Please try Durian & not the frozen but from the farm it self. Go for good taste & bread like musang king & etc.

Thanks for the advice! I have learned to really like durian and now I will only eat it fresh. 🤤😊

[@rozikassim9846]

👍🏼 👍🏼 👍🏼... Luckily you try the good quality one. Most of people didnt like durian because they try that not good quality one. Musang King, Black Thorn, IOI is one of good quality one. There a lot of variety of durians... Make sure you get a good one. Dont take the one that texture too softer one like got water in it, that one is old one and not fresh one. The one that wrinkle texture is taste bitter n sweet. The one that smooth texture one is more sweet n sometimes got only a bit bitter. Now July 2021 is durians season in Malaysia

reading your comment makes me crave Durian now haha

Actually the price you paid does not guaranteed if the durian is that good. You need to come during the durian season. During this season, you do not need to pay $38 to get good durian. It will be in abundance n you could get good durian even if you just pay $10 or less.

It is DURIAN season :) yum yum yum

Depends on the people. For those who love it, the smell is tempting. It's fragrant not stinky as some haters perceive it to be.

[@khoonelson1062]

Musang King from Malaysia is the best durian

[@intheworldofmari]

yummmmyyyyy!

[@pakngah3715]

Most South East Asians dont like blue cheese but I love it. Difference is durian is best tasted fresh but blue cheese has to be 'rotten' to be at its best. Sour durians are stale ones. So get the trader to replace it especially if you paid dear. Durians should be like creamy, stiff custard textured, sweet, and slightly bitter. The taste profile is complex. The best/worst is Musang King variety...you either hooked or disgusted for life and the hereafter. Try Thai durians if you have a pussy palate.

[@sivenesharunachalam]

Even tiger eats this durian

my dog also likes durian haha

The durian u had is not so good. There are better quality of musang king. And the seeds is not small at all.

[@intheworldofmari]

Alright.. next time I will ask for a better quality one with small seeds :) thank you for the tip :)

[@hgchaser]

intheworldofmari , to have good durian, wait for the durian season: Durian season is supposed to be twice a year. Those that u see everyday ,at geylang , it’s lousy durian. In what ways is it lousy? 1) they are modified version, many from Thailand instead of Malaysia. 2) they are taste of pesticide/chemical. Your tongue will feel weird. 3) a good mau san wang durian Is supposed to be bitter, very creamy/ sticky. And u can literally eat 2-3 whole fruit and u will not be sick of it. And the husk should be attracting flies after that. Nowadays, u don’t see flies flying near the shells. 4) the durian u chosen, do u notice the $3-5 box colour looks like $25 one. Durian are supposed to look different. One look at the flesh, u will know it’s D24, MSW, etc. Once u really tasted a good durian, u will not patronise those stalls again:

[@Deviliciouslittledevil]

Nxt should try royal thai durians

Not musang king….seeds look too big
