Though comical, the No Durian signs of South-East Asia are not to be ignored.
This spiky “King of Fruits” has a smell not unlike decomposing garbage. It’s a sweet rot that cannot be thwarted with household air freshener alone.
That’s why it’s eaten outside. And why it’s banned from public transport and hotels.
Once that smell gets in, there’s no getting it out.

Am I Reading Too Much into This? 
I never thought I’d feel sorry for a fruit!

Apparently, it’s delicious though. I’d love to try one now 🙂 And smell one for that matter…
