Are you familiar with fruit named durian? Here in the Philippines, there are lots of durian in Davao. Durian smells so bad. Even if it is not yet open, I really cannot stand on its smell. Most people says that durian stinks but it taste like heaven. For me, I cannot eat it anymore because I cannot stand the smell of it. I will have a headache every time I smell it. I tasted it once and I don't like it either. So far, this is the only fruit I hate. I am really sorry durian. No offend to those who love it.

At first I really didn't like the smell and taste of Durian either, but since my family moved here in Davao, I can't help but love its unique taste and its distinctive smell.
Hope you get in terms with Durian soon. :3

I haven't taste durian yet I think at first it is difficult to eat it because of the smell. I want to try but it is so expensive here in Manila. Marang and Durian is so similar with their appearances I think the taste of Marang is so close to Durian. I think it is acquired taste to be able to appreciate this fruit. I heard it is aphrodisiac but I'm not so sure about it.

No offense here. I do love durian even many says it smell awful. Durian is delicious despite its smell whose for me is not that bad. My most hated fruit is the cheska. It doesn’t have the awful smell like the durian but the appearance of it when ripe somehow disgusts me. I would not describe it, it may make you throw up if you imagine it.

Whoa you are Durian hater ?? LOL , i really like Durian, i can tell you from the smell for this fruit. Maybe we have a different sense of smell, LOL. I love all fruit but the one i don't really like is banana, because banana have some sort of latex, and this latex make my tongue itchy.

I like Durian 
Its true that Durian has a pungent and stinky smell but behind it is a great taste that other fruits don't have. I like Durian candy bars from Davao, I even asked my boyfriend to bring some for me before he went back in Manila. Magnolia has made Durian ice cream and I love it as well!

I hate Jackfruit. I know Durian is bad but excluding it from the list, i think Jackfruit smells bad. Everytime i come across with that fruit, it reminds me of the wet market. You know, like it smells like dirt, human poop and imburnal combined. The taste is ok but i'm losing my appetite enough to make me skip eating it.

I really can't think of a fruit that I don't like. What does durian taste like? The reason I'm asking is because I have never heard of it before.

I like every kind of fruits that I've tasted and I like durian too. Well the first time I had it I felt it tasted a little bit strange. But soon I got used to its smell and now it's one of my favorites.
If I have to pick a fruit that I dislike, I think I don't like papaya that much.

I love fruits in general, but I can´t even bar the smell of the maracuya. It´s too strong for me.
