STINKY FRUIT!

The durian is a light green, spiny, melon-like fruit from southeast Asia that has delicate, creamy, bittersweet golden flesh and and unforgettable odor. One writer likens it to: "overripe cheese. Rotting fish. Unwashed socks. A city dump on a hot summer's day... carrion in custard."

The mystique of the stinky yet delicious durian is legendary among travelers to tropical Asia. Not the kind of dessert you want to order on your first date.
