One of MUST do in Malaysia is taste all type of durian! Purposely drive to village and go to durian garden, just want to taste as much as can! Some people say this is smelly, yes. It is. But the taste.... Thats the best !

Yes, and it is very expensive too. I don't eat it because if I eat and eat, I might like it and then it is going to cost me more money on shopping..

I know that in Singapore you cannot take durians in the lifts or in taxis. I can't remember now how it tasted and I don't remember smelling it. Maybe I didn't have any at all!

Many would consider it as having an acquired taste...

Have many! D24 probably the most famous. But there are more. I don't know the name in English. But the Chinese meaning is like : red prawn, gold pillow.... Many many.
