Have you ever eaten a durian? What does it taste like? (mander.xyz)

I haven't. I'm not even sure I've seen one. I've definitely read about them, but I'm not sure I understand what they smell like or what they taste like and how is it possible that people can comfortably eat something that they agree it smells horrible. We're not talking stinky like cheese or salami, but actually unpleasant if I understand correctly.

So please, do share your experience! Thanks

Not alone, but I did eat a lot of durian chocolate when I visited Malaysia. It's alright once you get used to the slight farty smell upon opening the package.

I brought a box with me back home. My kids hated it.
