I tried Durian fruit jam in Singapore and it was really good. I could not try the fruit. It's smell was too repelling.

I know in Singapore you weren't allowed to take durian fruit in elevators or taxis. And you couldn't keep it in your hotel room.

I can´t stand the smell of durian. I have eaten this once as an ice cream without knowing it that it was a durian ice cream and I had stomach pain and so I don´t eat it anymore.
