I just returned from Kuala Lumpur where I tried some for the first time. I totally get the obsession now. It was the most amazingly delicious and unique fruit I've eaten in my entire life. Your video captures this experience perfectly!
Rosalie O'Rourke have eaten fresh durian before n the frozen packaged ones u talking about. The frozen ones taste nothing like the fresh ones. I dunno what they did to the frozen one but one bite n I threw mine away. Never buy them again. God knows what they done to it before packaging it.
Rosalie O'Rourke Nope, it should never ever taste like smelly socks or onions. The smell can be overwhelming and pungent but the taste is unique, sweet. Texture is just like custard.
I lived two years in Hong Kong and never tried durian during that time. When I visited Singapore in 2010, I made a b-line for it. i will now eat durian at each and every opportunity presented to me. It is the king of all fruit!
i had the same reaction when i tried musang king durian lol...couldnt speak, just smiling...so freaking good... cant describe the taste, its just heaven lol... its nothing like the others normal durian
Hi Mark! I gave your video a thumbs up, because you are the first person I have ever seen that not only talks nicely about durian, but is able to eat it without making a face like you're going to gag. I've only seen and heard nothing but yucky comments about it, and yet, I have learned something today, that durian can be sweet, bitter, but very tasty at the same time. You almost make me want to try it...almost. haha Thanks for sharing!
Mark, I'm literally crying watching this video. Oh, how I miss eating Musang King. I can't afford to eat one as I used to so I'll just eat the normal durians from time to time. And your expressions when eating food are really priceless. Hope you are doing fine always.
Yes, folks, this how it looks like when you get the Durian fever. When you really love the durian fruit. If you ever wonder why anybody would eat the Durian, this video explain it excellently. Thanks, Mark! Your video does it better than the other Durian videos before. This should have a million views.
Love Musang King.. am surprise it is featured in Singapore. Singapore has no durian orchard and nearly all their fruits (durians, rambutans, mangoesteen, guava etc) and vegetables come from Malaysia. You can get all these at a fraction of what you pay in Singapore.
7:23 That's always what I want to say. Durian's taste is more like vanilla, cheese, butter, custard & milk rather than onions, carcass & socks as described by most Western people
The thing is most durians that are imported to Europe, North America, etc are frozen. These durians are plucked before ripe as ripe durian will not last more than 3-4 days after falling off their trees.
Westerners got an old frozen one that spoil quickly, thats why they would never know the real value of durian unless they come to southeast asia and try it themselves. Weird seeing westerners dislike durian when they can tolerate maggot and blue cheese
Foxley Right??? I don’t think I’ll ever enjoy blue cheese (taste & smell)... Have you seen the episode on Fear Factor though when they had people eat durian (+ Balut eggs) & they were gagging just off the smell?? 😂😂
+DoomsDayCookie +Xaos Legion Once acquired & if you grow to like the taste, you'll thank God for it. BUT, the durian must be a good one, like the one Mark is eating. Musang King(Mao Shan Wang) is one of the best, do ensure u get the real ones (from Malaysia). Life is worth living when I'm eating really good durian!
Best foodgasm I've ever seen. Our local oriental store has frozen peeled durian. The stuff smells like rotten onions, but has an amazing creamy sweetness like nothing else I know of. You have to get past the smell to enjoy it. It's just about the only thing I have ever seen make Andrew Zimmern gag, which greatly surprised me, cause I have seen him eat stuff that's much worse. I love durian.
+Wayne Warmack you have to come to southeast Asia to try fresh durians here. Thailand gives you crisp, light and sweet durians. Malaysia gives you robust custardy buttery durians. Where does your frozen durian come from? What cultivar is it? In any case, you really have to come to Singapore / Malaysia to try the Musang King.
I was searching youtube for durian videos for durian reviews in Malaysia and i came across this from Mark. Yes!!! I was never a durian craze/enthusiast before. I do eat durian but i don’t go crazy about it when come durian season. Now is durian season all over Malaysia. A week ago i tasted a variety in my hometown in Kedah called 101 or is it IOI idk and i was hooked!!! It was soooo heavenly delicious, not as bitter as Musang King. I returned to KL just last weekend to have another durian session to again devour IOI and Udang Merah. Both are soo good and now i am planning my third durian session in a span of 2 weeks. God, forgive my indulgence. Most fruits are well, fruits. Sweet or sour. Durian is a different league. It’s a fruit that is savoury. It’s a combination of sweet, creamy, bitter, silky in texture, fragrant. It is really superior than all other fruits.
I ate durian for the first time in Ubud, Bali. It was an incredible experience. Durian is like all the best savory and sweet foods in one. Butter, custard, cheese, banana, mango, with a hint of fresh fish. I ate it every chance I got after that. I'm so sad I can only find it frozen in the States.
One of the best durian videos ever! You really managed to share that experience with us very well! Thank God I'm actually in Thailand right now and can eat Durian, otherwise this would be painful to watch!
Thailand durian taste differently. They do pluck the fruit and ripe it with chemical, while in Malaysia they wait until the fruit ripe n fall naturally from the tree.
When I was visit Jakarta few years ago. I can't finish up my durian. Than I gave to homeless children. He ran with my durian and celebrate and declare loudly. "I have durian.... I have durian". And few his friends run after him to enjoy the fruit to no were. Its make me and my friend tear down immediately. Yes, Durian is expensive
that moment of silence right there explains why durian is the king of all fruits! And Mark the king of all food bloggers ur facial expression each time , superb!
Mark....If you want to eat cheap Musang King...Go to Malaysia Raub,Pahang on July..You will find a lot of Musang King,D24 and more durian.Please come here.. ;)
Oh here is pro durian tips! Some said durian is a hot fruit that can cause upset stomach or even fever. So to cool it down, you pour some water into one of the skin compartment and drink straight from there like a cup. The skin has the cooling factor that everyone need after eating durian. Have fun!
Musang(malay) = civet. musang king durian = originally this type durian is from a place called Gua Musang, Kelantan, Malaysia. Hence the name. You translated from it's chinese name.
So buttery, pudding on seed, delicious beyond comprehension, almost like creature, mind blowing, requires no chewing, 10 times more better than natural pudding... 😂😅 what a great review Mark . I am from Malaysia and we call it King of Fruit.
I've had Durian for the first time this year. It's awesome like a creamy custard. The smell is pungent and strong but not nearly as disgusting as people say.
hey estela. if you have any friends coming over to southeast asia. just a little heads up about durian.. It is seasonal... durian is always available, but the price is mark up so high when not in season.. literally 5@10 dolars more per kg. come during seasons, and you can have the best of the best. fully ripe , the durian is at the best condition when it drops on its own weight.. so , go nuts... In malaysia , there are names we call like people like mark and myself , that goes crazy for durian. its "Hantu durian" . cant get enough of this stuff, ^_^
most durians in Singapore imported from Malaysia and some from Thailand. only buy Malaysia's durians cos they are the best. Malaysia will only handpick the best and ship to Singapore, that's where most of their profit come from. can be assured that most durian sold in Singapore are the best. that's explains the high price but it's totally worth it.
mark you are a very lucky westerner to have an acquired taste for durian. your descriptions and knowledge on the heavenly fruit is spot on. i know u and me feel sorry for those people who cant love the fruit. its insanely unbelievable food. i wont call it fruit tho. it should be elevated to food status
Musang King durian originated in a place called Sungai Klau, Raub. The creator Ah Fook Gor grafted his 1st Musang King varient 33 years ago. The best Musang Kings are within the 1st to 3rd generation grafting which could only be found in Raub. Subsequent generations grown in other areas are diluted and the MK taste is diluted.
If you go to Kuching, Sarawak during durian fruit season you can enjoy all varieties of durians at a cheap price and enjoy eating it everyday.You can never be fed up with it.Welcome to Borneo.
Hi Mark, My Wife (originally from Singapore) and I love your videos!... My Wife Christina just bought me some Durian today I am trying this for the very first time and love it !! It is very unique in flavour so creamy and a wonderful taste addictive I feel....Everyone, You must try it ...Cheers Mate! From Graeme and Christina in Australia!
Hai Mark...!!! Come to Malaysia... You can have a durian fest fresh from the farm... It's the best that you can get... Many types like Musang King, Black Thorn, IOI, Redprawn and many others.... You can taste the difference between each type.... Even with a cheaper price than Singapore... Because it's originated from Malaysia....
No,the best durian in the world is Kan Yao from Nonthaburi,Thailand.It's only sell for The Royal Family and Billionaire.Even 30 years ago the price is 1000 USD.I have try once and god taste be like that.The soil fertility of Nonthaburi is the best.That why it taste really good.They can only produce for 30 durians per year. you have to reserve for about 2-3 years atleast.
thecolt hazza the most expensive durian is kan yao but I'm wondering how many people afford to pay...the best Musang king record sold for one fruit in jalan alor is around USD 250...my friend get an offer that time for that durian who he reserve to others...
thecolt hazza really Although the durian is not native to thailand hahaha im a food critic i tried all different kinds of durians in SEA the best one and rare kind i found in the philippines no other durians beat that one! Go search the net and you will see it
"Kanyao" is the best Mark. And you can find it on a farm 40km away from Bangkok. And i think only there. And you will pay 10K$ minimum for it. That Durian sort was virtually wiped out following the flood several years ago. I see that your channel started to grow even faster :) Im glad for You Mark. Im a fan almost since you started on YT. 6-7 yrs now.. Regards to your family and to you, from Mark from Croatia
Before you ask why Mark makes that foodgasmic face everytime he shoves those Musang King golden nuggets into his mouth, let me tell you this, we Malaysians eat durian like that too and we are proper seasoned pros.
I really cannot stand the smell of Durian but when I watched this video twice. I went to the market and bought one. It really changed my mind. Now, Durian is one of my favorite fruits! This thing is addicting.
I have been eating durian for my entire life & have been eating it for almost everyday for past 1 week. After watching your vid, I feel like going to the kitchen to open another one even I had just finished one.
We have a new rating system guys! 1- hmmm kind of nice 2- nodding head kind of nice 3- delicious expression kind of nice 4- delicious expression, tilted head kind of nice 5- moment of silence
Ya i think better for the singaporean make condo or apartment on the land than some durians farm 😂 that will be much more sense getting pay each month than waiting once a year for durian season
No more signs says "durian NOT allowed" - it's definitely an acquired taste - we learned that when we were in Singapore for 2.5 months in 1995 - not allowed in any public buildings or taxis or buses or MRT. LOL We took some durian candy back to the USA for friends to try - only 1 friend loved the taste.
my experience, when u smell it for the first time ,it disgusting, but try to smell it many times its kind of best aroma, then just try it .i bet it is the best fruit in this entire world
It can't be forced. People who hates durian lacks a certain taste receptors to make the fruit taste or smells good to them. Just like how some people hates strawberries products. The lack of a particular taste and smell receptor makes it taste like soap to them, while some people just loves it.
@@sc9433 took me about four tries in a span of twelve years. I figured the first 3times are no good durians. I now love durian but I don't regret not liking it at first since I saved a lot of money😂expensive fruit😨
3:34 that deserves a moment of silent.. your words is so deep like a line of poetry.. and really fits with your face expression (tilting head) Durian really is a heavenly fruit.. these days is durian season in Sumatra Indonesia.. please come again
For years I have despised this fruit. I would gagged by even a whiffed of the smell. But after going to the Philippines, I decided to give it a try. And for some reason I fell in love with it. And now I can’t stop eating it. My explanation is that it’s a complex fruit that requires a complex taste bud. Like beer or anything that takes time to learn to acquire a taste for it, once you acquire it, you’ll never look at it the same.
Jasmy Shahdi just for your knowledge,Singapore itself have durian tree just not that much compare to Malaysia..Tanjong rhu and lim chu kang area have durian tree...try to google it before you make any stupid comment.....
singapore imported durians from malaysia. musang king is famous durian from bentong and raub, pahang state of m'sia. u can get cheaper during the season.
Always enjoy seeing a cucasian who enjoys durian. This looks like good quality durian. Too many times I see people who knows nothing about durian walking into a shop to buy durian, only to later complain how horrible the fruit was. Im pretty sure the seller sold the worst fruit he had in stock to him.
durian tastes amazng, its a nice cross between bitter and sweet and its insanely creamy and delicious. probably my favourite fruit. Although it is an acquired taste so i understand why many people dislike it
Musang King is a Malaysian Top Grade Durian, simply the best. Malaysia is home to some of the best durians in the world. Singapore imports from Malaysia most of their durian. If you are a durian lover Musang King is a must have. Mark is not exaggerating Musang King has a superb creamy smooth slightly bitter taste. If you have not tasted durians before pls buy the best variety 👍🏻 Musang King, Udang Merah or D24 is 👍🏻
Me too! I saw Jessica Chastain on Fallon and she brought one to the show, wore gloves, and she looked like she was in ecstasy eating too! She did however say it's a VERY acquired taste. Supposed to be a bit garlicky? I really wish I knew where to get a good one in the Philadelphia area.
It's like what Mark described in this video. Creamy, buttery, sweet and a slight hint of bitterness. Yes, it's an acquired taste, not all Singaporean/Malaysian love the taste. It's like blue cheese, you either love or hate it. I doubt you could find durian of this quality in US. You need to travel to Singapore and try it.
It is exactly as jessica had said, "a very acquired taste'. even some locals have not yet to embrace the loveliness of durians, but once you do, you'll be hooked. But if you do one day come across it, do keep an extremely open mind, and nose....lol...pinch your nose if you have to, and let your taste buds do its job.
Mark, try to go to penang or pahang... Do a specialised video on the various cultivars.. Red prawn, black thorn, black gold, sultan King.. And many more. I believe u and ying will enjoy it while u shoot the vids. Cheers. Love your videos
That first bite into that massive kidney shaped portion looked almost orgasmic. I've never heard of the stuff, but despite its repitation of smelling worse than fermented garbage, it's a bucket list item.
I just returned from Kuala Lumpur where I tried some for the first time. I totally get the obsession now. It was the most amazingly delicious and unique fruit I've eaten in my entire life. Your video captures this experience perfectly!
Matt Spewak every durian I’ve tried (frozen only) has been super onionish...are most of them like that?
Rosalie O'Rourke have eaten fresh durian before n the frozen packaged ones u talking about. The frozen ones taste nothing like the fresh ones. I dunno what they did to the frozen one but one bite n I threw mine away. Never buy them again. God knows what they done to it before packaging it.
LilTone Nozack do the fresh ones taste like onion?
Rosalie O'Rourke No. The fresh ones never taste like the oniony tasting thing I tried in the frozen packed.
Rosalie O'Rourke Nope, it should never ever taste like smelly socks or onions. The smell can be overwhelming and pungent but the taste is unique, sweet. Texture is just like custard.

+Peter Thomas Yes, great to hear that Peter!
Try the Queen of Fruit : MANGOSTENE ..
array s , right it's said that the Smell of Durian ( The King of Fruit) is like The Smell of Cheese for us ( Asian people ) 😀
rambutan is the second place after durian instead of mangosteen, hope u learn that.
If Durian is the king then I think Cempedak is definitely the queen!
The way he described the taste, it sounds like a poems
Laven Dear his face matches too lol
Lol, yeah
Because it is
That 50 deg angle head tilt definitely confirmed this durian deliciousness.
spot on
+lefad li Yes, that and the extended wide eyed stare!
i had the same reaction when i tried musang king durian lol...couldnt speak, just smiling...so freaking good... cant describe the taste, its just heaven lol... its nothing like the others normal durian
heard black thorn is equally good
I love durian...handed down from my mom's side and now I carry the responsibility of teaching my kids to love it one day.

+ Keno 'We south east asian even eat them with rice' that's just you mate. durian and rice together is disgusting
Fmungs maybe "sticky rice", that would be more logic haha
Aditya Rahman ahh, yeah you're right. I was imagining someone eating it with rice and curry or something lol
look at laowhy's video, he likes durian too
Mark usually doesn't like sweet food. The fact that he enjoyed this so much just shows how extraordinary it must've been.
I had durian for the first time two weeks ago in Singapore. I’m so happy I loved it! Amazing fruit!
And sad i dont like it :(
I want to taste it like you feel :(
Mark, I'm literally crying watching this video. Oh, how I miss eating Musang King. I can't afford to eat one as I used to so I'll just eat the normal durians from time to time. And your expressions when eating food are really priceless. Hope you are doing fine always.
It’s okay …one day will get to afford it… work hard okay😁
Yes, folks, this how it looks like when you get the Durian fever. When you really love the durian fruit. If you ever wonder why anybody would eat the Durian, this video explain it excellently. Thanks, Mark!
Your video does it better than the other Durian videos before. This should have a million views.
+Nu Otonomi Thank you very much Nu.

Musang King is history for Malaysian, we eating The Black Thorn Durian now.
Black thorn is still too young for the cultivar. So for the richness of taste I think still gotta wait a few years

Malaysia will only handpick the best and ship to Singapore, that's where most of their profit come from. can be assured that most durian sold in Singapore are the best.
that's explains the high price but it's totally worth it.
The dealer might own some of the plantation in Malaysia. If he does own it, he is free to call it whatever he thinks it should be called.

Finally. Found someone who is not South East Asian and loves durian. I give respect to Mark
pretty sure mark is from thailand, which is a SEA country and is known for its many types of durian
Now I feel so glad to have a few durian trees my dad planted beside our house :D
I tried many strains of durian in Malaysia... musang king is my favorite.. the day i die i hope will be for a durian overdose
oh, durian overdose is a thing? looks like im in trouble
Strains lol. You're saying it as if it was a virus lmao.
Agree, I became a durian addict..esp MK, black thorn, IOI, Red Prawns, d24 etc😂
Your appetite is outrageous- looks like you've been starving for weeks on end!
Finally i found the longest close eyed moment from Mark. Durian is simply the best.
This variety is really make me feel full, compare to other types of durian. 1 musang king durian is enough. 😋😋
Durian is the best fruit in the planet- Malaysian durians are numero uno
No,the best durian in the world is Kan Yao from Nonthaburi,Thailand.It's only sell for The Royal Family and Billionaire.Even 30 years ago the price is 1000 USD.I have try once and god taste be like that.The soil fertility of Nonthaburi is the best.That why it taste really good.They can only produce for 30 durians per year. you have to reserve for about 2-3 years atleast.
thecolt hazza musang king already perfect
thecolt hazza the most expensive durian is kan yao but I'm wondering how many people afford to pay...the best Musang king record sold for one fruit in jalan alor is around USD 250...my friend get an offer that time for that durian who he reserve to others...
thecolt hazza really Although the durian is not native to thailand hahaha im a food critic i tried all different kinds of durians in SEA the best one and rare kind i found in the philippines no other durians beat that one! Go search the net and you will see it
@@alemalem6728 how do you know it's good?..are you a billionaire?
Mark breaks out the pop music for durian.
Tobyn Manthorpe 80’s pop? perhaps durian durian?
"Kanyao" is the best Mark. And you can find it on a farm 40km away from Bangkok. And i think only there. And you will pay 10K$ minimum for it. That Durian sort was virtually wiped out following the flood several years ago. I see that your channel started to grow even faster :) Im glad for You Mark. Im a fan almost since you started on YT. 6-7 yrs now.. Regards to your family and to you, from Mark from Croatia
Finally!! The right testimonial to express how tasty durians are..and that's the right way to eat and cut open it..
Before you ask why Mark makes that foodgasmic face everytime he shoves those Musang King golden nuggets into his mouth, let me tell you this, we Malaysians eat durian like that too and we are proper seasoned pros.
I really cannot stand the smell of Durian but when I watched this video twice. I went to the market and bought one. It really changed my mind. Now, Durian is one of my favorite fruits! This thing is addicting.
Musang King in Singapore actually came from Malaysia hahaha 😂😂😂
well duh. its always you guys that claim. we never say anything lol
Stop claiming
it is fact..
dont claim bitch
Jgn tunjuk bodoh tu.
The best durians come from Malaysia. Eating Musang King makes you feel like you've gone to heaven!
I have been eating durian for my entire life & have been eating it for almost everyday for past 1 week. After watching your vid, I feel like going to the kitchen to open another one even I had just finished one.
This time around in Raub Pahang, D24 and Musang King are crazy hot!! My family eating em everyday for the past weeks
u must from a rich family or very rich family. regular malaysian family only eat musang king on a salary day and only 1 hahhahhah
Mark, im from Penang & i would like to recommend you to try the BLACK THORN DURIAN. Ur gonna find it way way better than musang king/udang merah.
You could almost see he was going to cry of gratification and appreciation... Speechless the guy... Love your terms and expressions... 👍🏼😄
We have a new rating system guys!
1- hmmm kind of nice
2- nodding head kind of nice
3- delicious expression kind of nice
4- delicious expression, tilted head kind of nice
5- moment of silence
oh man, his enthusiasm is great. Hail king durian!
Durian is a good source of good cholesterol. Durian ice cream and durian pie is heaven. Here in the Philippines, I have durian the whole year round
Singpore has no durian any more...all import from Mlysia bcz no Orchard no land coz of urbanisation...city state
Ya i think better for the singaporean make condo or apartment on the land than some durians farm 😂 that will be much more sense getting pay each month than waiting once a year for durian season
No more signs says "durian NOT allowed" - it's definitely an acquired taste - we learned that when we were in Singapore for 2.5 months in 1995 - not allowed in any public buildings or taxis or buses or MRT. LOL We took some durian candy back to the USA for friends to try - only 1 friend loved the taste.
my experience, when u smell it for the first time ,it disgusting, but try to smell it many times its kind of best aroma, then just try it .i bet it is the best fruit in this entire world
Damien J its exactly like your fart. U kindda hate that smell but truthfully u kindda enjoy it 😂
It can't be forced.
People who hates durian lacks a certain taste receptors to make the fruit taste or smells good to them.
Just like how some people hates strawberries products. The lack of a particular taste and smell receptor makes it taste like soap to them, while some people just loves it.
@@sc9433 took me about four tries in a span of twelve years. I figured the first 3times are no good durians. I now love durian but I don't regret not liking it at first since I saved a lot of money😂expensive fruit😨
3:34 that deserves a moment of silent..
your words is so deep like a line of poetry.. and really fits with your face expression (tilting head)
Durian really is a heavenly fruit.. these days is durian season in Sumatra Indonesia.. please come again
3:28 facial expressions are PRICELESS 😂👌🏼 LOVE IT MAN!
Now that I've tried fresh Musang King I wonder if I will ever like common durian as much again.
Lol. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
For years I have despised this fruit. I would gagged by even a whiffed of the smell. But after going to the Philippines, I decided to give it a try. And for some reason I fell in love with it. And now I can’t stop eating it. My explanation is that it’s a complex fruit that requires a complex taste bud. Like beer or anything that takes time to learn to acquire a taste for it, once you acquire it, you’ll never look at it the same.
Singapore durian?? Plant where?? In the sea??
hahha
Read the description bro. It's clearly stated the durian was imported from Malaysia. 😂😂😂😂
ya2..they plant its in the sea..kah6..wtf.!
Jasmy Shahdi just for your knowledge,Singapore itself have durian tree just not that much compare to Malaysia..Tanjong rhu and lim chu kang area have durian tree...try to google it before you make any stupid comment.....
@@leongjanson7115 have u eat the Singapore durian?
singapore imported durians from malaysia. musang king is famous durian from bentong and raub, pahang state of m'sia. u can get cheaper during the season.
viknes noob musang king from klantan tanah merah hahaha paheng just eksport or best farm
Musang king original from johor
Zainal bin Azahari sakai
Khair Syach alhamdulilah...
Zainal bin Azahari still sakai
I just love the way you respond of anything's taste. 😊
I love durian so much 😍😍😍😍
oh my god.. cant watch anymore. need durianss!!!
Always enjoy seeing a cucasian who enjoys durian. This looks like good quality durian.
Too many times I see people who knows nothing about durian walking into a shop to buy durian, only to later complain how horrible the fruit was. Im pretty sure the seller sold the worst fruit he had in stock to him.
Awesome! Durian smells like hell, but tastes like heaven!
Mark devoured that fruit like a boss!
omg ... I want some so bad!!! 😋
Been craving it since last year
durian tastes amazng, its a nice cross between bitter and sweet and its insanely creamy and delicious. probably my favourite fruit.
Although it is an acquired taste so i understand why many people dislike it
Musang King is a Malaysian Top Grade Durian, simply the best. Malaysia is home to some of the best durians in the world. Singapore imports from Malaysia most of their durian. If you are a durian lover Musang King is a must have. Mark is not exaggerating Musang King has a superb creamy smooth slightly bitter taste.
If you have not tasted durians before pls buy the best variety 👍🏻 Musang King, Udang Merah or D24 is 👍🏻
dude that looks good I never had one but I would LOVE to try durian!
those thoughts will immediately disappear as you get the first wiffs of the smell. Takes getting used to, trust me
Me too! I saw Jessica Chastain on Fallon and she brought one to the show, wore gloves, and she looked like she was in ecstasy eating too! She did however say it's a VERY acquired taste. Supposed to be a bit garlicky? I really wish I knew where to get a good one in the Philadelphia area.
It's like what Mark described in this video. Creamy, buttery, sweet and a slight hint of bitterness. Yes, it's an acquired taste, not all Singaporean/Malaysian love the taste.
It's like blue cheese, you either love or hate it. I doubt you could find durian of this quality in US. You need to travel to Singapore and try it.
It is exactly as jessica had said, "a very acquired taste'. even some locals have not yet to embrace the loveliness of durians, but once you do, you'll be hooked. But if you do one day come across it, do keep an extremely open mind, and nose....lol...pinch your nose if you have to, and let your taste buds do its job.
Travel to singapore to try durian??? Yeah come visit malaysia to try emmentalar cheese then...
Im not a fan of durian but watching u eat it makes my mouth water😅
Mark, try to go to penang or pahang... Do a specialised video on the various cultivars.. Red prawn, black thorn, black gold, sultan King.. And many more. I believe u and ying will enjoy it while u shoot the vids. Cheers. Love your videos
I want to see Mark go to Mcdonalds
In one video he eats subway on a plane haha
Lol, you're a jokester!
+rinwhr Nah Mark usually eats food :)
+rinwhr someone should make a parody video of his face at mcdonalds
For those who are wondering what durian tastes like,it's more like custardy & nutty flavor..good durian has a bit of firm texture..
That first bite into that massive kidney shaped portion looked almost orgasmic. I've never heard of the stuff, but despite its repitation of smelling worse than fermented garbage, it's a bucket list item.
Just like me couldnt stand the truffle smell.
Hard to explain the durian taste(taste from heaven)
Man you're eyes almost pop out! When you took a bite. Looks delicious.
best thumbnail ever
0u0
I can swear that this is the longest facial expression you've ever had
+Dennis Law Haha, possible!
just got durian in my home today in Aus. SOOO EXCITED
I can tell you like Durian. Was worried Ying wouldn't get any of it! Lol
+erica mary Hey Erica, Ying had half of it, she loves it too!
