Durian is like blue cheese. They have strong odors and are offensive to some people. But to people who enjoy them, their odor enhance their flavor which are irresistible to aficionados. The durian fruit has different texture and flavor as it ripens. When it is green, it is hard to the touch, its texture is crunchy like apple and there is little flavor. As it ripens, it gets softer, the texture is softer like green banana, and the taste has a distinct sweetness. When it is ripe, it is soft to the touch, its texture is firmly creamy like ripe banana, and the flavor is heavenly and complex sweet. Past its ripeness, the fruit becomes mushy like custard and the flavor become past-the-prime sweet. Depending on one’s leaning, the durian fan has his/her favorite ripeness. To me, the ripe stage is the best and deserves the title of the king of fruits. I like this fruit a lot. But I can't eat too much of this fruit, because of my high blood pressure. Oh, and I like durian latte too. Have you ever tried eating Durian? P.s. - Photo from google image
