In a recent post about my love for peaches absintheur commented on the durian fruit. By chance there were some durians in the local supermarket the other day, so I bought one.
And now I can tell you exactly what it tastes like: onion-flavoured creme caramel. Here is a picture.
The other question everyone asks is about the smell. Yes, it does smell, and the smell is not pleasant. But don’t just take my opinion, here is a sign.
This sign can be found in subway stations in Singapore. I wonder what the penalty is?

Only if you travel on the subway train with it!

It does look like a hedgehog, doesn’t it, but I am sure that hedgehogs in Singapore would never smoke.
I wonder if the penalty is confiscation?
megu, the sign is not a joke, I don’t think anyone used to eat durians on the subway train, I think they were just carrying them. Even when they are not cut they still smell!

The image looks like an aerial shot of a hedgehog smoking a cigar – it’s strange that there is no penalty.

I have never eaten durian, but I don’t want to try it.
Because maybe I will stand for the smell! :’-(
Oh,I am surprised at this sign!!
In Singapore, Does everyone eat durian so much outside?
Or is it just a joke?
