Durian fruit is generally slightly oval, about a foot wide and covered in formidable looking spikes.
The fruit can weigh on average 3 ½ kilos

Due to its overpowering smell, durian has been banned on many types of public transport and in hotels across Asia

It’s a superfruit
Despite the stench, durian is extremely healthy. Naturally rich in iron, vitamin C, and potassium, durian improves muscle strength, skin health and even lowers blood pressure.
There are around 30 different varieties of durian. The fruit is native Asia. Thailand is the biggest exporter of the fruit.

It’s almost impossible to describe the taste and smell
Travel writers have tried to describe the taste and smell of durian, for over a hundred years and still we’re nowhere closer to being able to describe it helpfully to someone who has never experienced its unique taste and smell.

In 1856, Alfred Russel Wallace sent a letter to Sir William Jackson Hooker describing the fruit as: ‘A rich custard highly flavored with almonds gives the best general idea of it, but there are occasional wafts of flavor that call to mind cream-cheese, onion-sauce, sherry-wine, and other incongruous dishes’.

Anthony Bourdain, who actually enjoyed eating the stinky fruit, describes the aftermath of eating it in a classic one line: ‘Your breath will smell as if you’d been French-kissing your dead grandmother’.
