^ Durian tastes and smells like shit... My bf shoved durian in my mouth cos he eats everything and doesnt want me to be so spoilt.. (yes, I ate some duck egg too btw)..

But anyways.. I believe that unless you can make yourself believe durian smells good, it will not taste good...

Other than that... I love green seedless grapes, and cherries (waste of time spitting seeds out tho), authentic Fuji apples from Japan (the core area is almost transparent.. it's as sweet as honey), plums, pineapples from thailand.....

I think it's easier if I dont list what fruit I like actually hahahha
bahahaha you know how in hong kong, they sell some japanese apples for like $6 AU for 2 fuji apples from japan
its like what a rip...the cheap and the expensiv taste the same

Is the nutritious value the same?

I like apples, but I cannot stand eating more than 2 at a time (and they taste so much better cold)
Mangoes, pears, dragonfruit, watermelon, cherries (the darker ones) are tasty.
I like durians too :). Haven't eaten it in ages.
and I really really really crave the pulp in coconuts :) (not the ones in cans but the ones on coconuts)

I dont think they're the same..

Cos the ones I ate whilst I was in Japan, I was at a ryokan near Fuji San... and they were the size of a mango...

Totally different from the fuji apples we get in Australia.. the core section isnt semi-transparent.. and the ones from Japan were really sweet... We ate it as dessert lol

Any top end fruit from Japan is really good... and extremely expensive...

It's like their top end apples..
They have an apple tree, and instead of letting all the apples grow, they cut down the ones which look the slightest 'gay'... so the perfect ones that remain will get all the nutrients.. that's why they grow so big.. (and the high price is because that one apple has to pay for say, 20 regular apples)

Then their square watermelons... will retail for au$100 for one... but they're usually only for gifts... cos I mean... who can afford that... as food... =S

hahaha, that goes to show only the rich are probably the ones that can afford $10 apples and $100 watermelons

i always thought that it was organic due to their prices :S
time to grow a 'perfect' apple tree

Durians and mangoes are the main ones, also like peaches, nectarines, plums, etc if they're juicy. Pears too.

Otherwise things that are flavoured grape, green apple, pineapple and passionfruit

Seedless ones are even better.

I just dont like it how your hands stink afterwards... lemon n limes are alright, but smelling like mandarins and oranges suck...
