Durian? What is durian
Durian? Ewwww the stinky fruit
Durian? I ❤️ durian!!!
Yes, there are three kinds of people in this world, lover of durian, hater of durian, and people who has slow internet connection ????
Durian is a very sweet fruit that is super pungent, native to South East Asian countries. It’s skin are spiky sharp and it’s flesh is like custard to some. To those who aren’t accustomed to it though, the smell remind them of leaking gas, so they couldn’t bring themselves to enjoy it much, not even to stand in the same room as the fruit?
These following squares are using durian JAM, so no need that noseclip, jeez! ?
Joking aside, these squares are wonderful and I so would like you to give them a try should you find durian jam (online or at Asian stores), you might change your mind about the stinky fruit ?
