For most Indonesians, durian is a heavenly fruit that provides high enjoyment.
So do not be surprised, if this popular fruit in Southeast Asia is also dubbed the "king of fruit".
However, this fruit has a strong aroma due to the content of 44 active aromatic compounds in it. The aroma is too strong this makes some people avoid this fruit.
This prickly fruit is also banned by hotels and airlines because of its aroma. The good news, durian also has many nutrients that are good for health.
Do you know durian fruit? Have you tried it?

@Vicentbayu I feel sick smelling that fruit. I have once eaten a durian ice cream. I didn´t know it was durian inside and then I vomited. 
Yikes!

That's right, precisely because it's the smell that makes me love this fruit. But unfortunately you are disturbed by the smell.

now the durian tree is bearing fruit, soon it will be durian season. You have to be patient to wait a few more months and be able to enjoy those delicious durians.

I think durian is very delicious when eaten directly, but I don't know why when I eat it in the form of bread I don't like it...
