Assume you know all about Durians. Saw them in a ethnic market and the kids got a kick out of smelling them. Have never tried it, but guess I would under certain circumstances. Have read that selecting the right one, can only be done by an expert and the fruit has to be one that just fell off the tree. Since they smell like a combination of feces and vomit, I sure would want the right one before tasting it only to find out it was not worth it. Think the article was in the Smithsonian but not sure.
