Durian Fruit


Interesting. The text is quite funny too.
The durian is a large, spiky fruit, native to the tropical rainforests of South-East Asia - where is is known as "the king of the fruits".

It is known to those who hate it for its penetrating, powerful smell - and to those who love it for its wonderful taste.

The texture is like a sort of slighly fibrous custard.

The taste is unique. Custard, almonds, and perhaps a hint of garlic. Or perhaps banana, papaya, vanilla, and - rotting onions.

To those who appreciate it, eating durian is often an incredible, beautiful experience.

It seems similar to the Jackfruit, very common in Brazil.
