I only remember durian from the open air markets in Bangkok. It smelled
horrific but is alledgely very mild and sweet tasting. I couldn't get
past the stench to try it. Some restaurants refuse to serve it because
of the smell.

I really have no idea what Nancy posted a picture of. Jackfruit or
breadfruit might be right.
