It's so funny... from hotel to subways signs, it's clear: carrying Durian is probably worse than carrying a handgun.

It does smell pretty strong!

@melyana Yeah, a bit like custard! That's why they need the signs, to keep the little old ladies from smuggling it around for snack time, hah. @martin You may be able to find durian candy if you want to dip a toe in. 路 2 months ago

@melyanna @martin It actually tastes pretty amazing, nothing like how it smells. It is a fun experience if you get the chance, but like ... outside and at a respectful distance from bystanders :) 路 2 months ago

What does this thing taste like? I am curious!

I would probably not be able to try it because my sense of smell heavily affects my will to approach foods. (In fact I don't eat most types of cheese and don't like eating stuff that smells strongly. Except for coffee). 路 2 months ago

In university one time I bought durian waffles from Asian store without knowing what it is. Opened package and stank up the entire apartment. Roommate walked in asked if somebody died.

So, we hid package in zip lock, but not before throwing a few waffles into our 3rd roommate鈥檚 backpack and under his bed. He never mentioned anything about it. We were extremely disappointed.

Before moving out of apartment we took waffles out of zip lock and hid it in the drawer for the next person to find. 路 2 months ago
