    Durians, with their super tough rind covered in super sharp spikes and their overwhelming stench, are basically screaming "Don't eat us! Nothing remotely edible here". But SE Asians are like "Nope haha".

    Those garbage plates are a nightmare to those with OCD. While it personally doesn't effect me, many many people with OCD can't have their food touching. Thankfully my OCD manifests in a way where I can handle having my food touching (because I like eating meatloaf with mashed potatoes, or mashed potatoes with my corn). But for many..oh no. This plate of food would be nightmare inducing.
