How does durian tastes

Well to be frank the very first bite of this fruit was different never tasted something like this, then later on we liked it, it smells pungent  and be identified from far away.

Due to its overpowering smell, durian has been banned , In Singapore, the fruit is banned across all types of public transportation and even taxis have signs to let you know they refuse to carry passengers transporting the smelly fruit.You have to pay a heavy fine for this offence.

So if you are adventurous enough to taste different fruits the you should give it a try
