After eating it, you start to sweat like a ... well, like someone who just ate durian. Jack Fruit, mentioned above, is called the Poor Man's Durian in Malaysia. As I recall, it has neither the pungency nor the physiological affects of durian. On the opposite end of the spectrum is chiku, from the chikel tree (also in Malaysia). It is the most wonderful fruit on the planet (or at least that part of the planet I've been to). It tastes like a perfect combination of pineapple and brown sugar. My guess is that it is next to impossible to transport chiku long distances, for it has a very thin skin and is easily bruised. Durian is also famous as a vasodialator.

I work in a fruit/veg area of a supermarket in Sydney (Aus) and have enjoyed many encounters with Durian. It has made me bleed many times, and I have had to contain my urges to throw up all over myself on many occasions. To me - it tastes like baked onion, congealed in a thick gooey mush of vomit and a splash of 'dead cow' smell as described in the above article. If you ever ingest anything poisonous and need a means of inducing vomiting - then being anywhere near Durian will be extremely useful. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy Durian as I do every time I am at work. MMmm can't wait for my next encounter :-) Hello all,

We had called the fire department and BGE and no-one could find the problem. Then one of my co-workers confided in me that it may be his lunch that was making everyone think there was a gas leak. I tried Durian Fruit today for the first time and it was ok. I do not however think that the odor is worth putting up with when there are a million and one other fruits I can eat that don't stink ! :) I work in an office building where people kept reporting a gas leak.

Though I remember I took some time to take use too, after coming to Singapore. A couple of times, though and it's very easy to get use to. Though the durian is defrosted? Doesn't sound like a very good idea... Durian is absolutely gorgeous. Though I remember I took some time to take use too, after coming to Singapore.

Doesn’t sound like a very good idea…
