Durian smoothies are good. Freeze-dried durian is very bad. I’ve never had the courage to crack open a fresh one.

I've heard Durians described as smelling like rear end while tasting like sweet... rear end. Looked it up on wikipedia. Travel and food writer Richard Sterling says it's odor is best described as pig-poo poo, turpentine and onions, garnished with a gym sock. Zesty has a new favorite as of 12:20 on Jul 9, 2019 |

There's a lot of food out there that isn't actively trying to struggle against you, don't see the charm in intentionally subjecting yourself to antagonistic aliments.

Platystemon posted:Durian smoothies are good. I wonder if all these bad reaction to the taste of durian is because they usually eat frozen ones imported from Asia. Maybe it tastes better fresh? Anyway, in Asian McDonalds you can occasionally eat durian McFlurry. They have actual durian flesh mixed in. Randaconda posted:I didn't know we had goons from that part of the world We are legion.

The first time I tried durian I hated it. But I kept trying it because I live in that part of the world and people kept offering it to me. The third time is when I started enjoying it. I used to be a durian evangelist and I tried to make sure everyone I know tried it, but now I've stopped. Mainly because it's an expensive and difficult craving to satisfy unless you live in SE Asia. Once you get hooked there's no going back.

jojoinnit posted:What exactly is the appeal of this... ? Food feels like the wrong word. I guess if one spends a lot of time around the food, it doesn't seem all that abnormal. I'm kind of neutral on durians myself, but the rest of my family goes wild over it. I mean, it's all right, don't get me wrong, but in my experience the odds are you either get too much seed, or the flesh just doesn't have enough taste. That said, I find something viscerally satisfying about thunking a machete into the skin of a durian and peeling that motherfucker to reveal the flesh inside

jojoinnit posted:What exactly is the appeal of this... ? Food feels like the wrong word. There are people all over Minnesota who spend each weekend driving long distances to attend various church lutefisk feeds. One of our nearby Lutheran churches runs one and a buddy of mine who goes there said that not only do people drive for more than an hour to eat there, they will literally just pile up a plate full of nasty cod and eat only that. For those who don't know, lutefisk is the Scandinavian fish equivalent of cheap bologna and was one of those extreme poverty foods from the old world that somehow became something descendents eat to connect with their heritage. It's made by drying cod with a lye mixture, then reconstituting the fish by soaking it in water over the course of days, progressively washing the lye out by repeatedly changing the water. The resulting fish is then cooked, producing something not unlike cod-flavored jello that is simultaneously tasteless and stinks to high heaven.

When tracking down a suspect, law enforcement might use a K-9 to track down a scent. This was not necessary for a recent arrest in Missouri. According to the Clay County Sheriff's Office, over the weekend, Liberty police were searching for a person who a felony warrant for arrest. The person was wanted for possession of a controlled substance. The suspect hid to avoid police, but apparently let out a fart so loudly, it gave up their hiding spot. "We’ve gotta give props to Liberty PD for using their senses to sniff him out!" read a Facebook comment from the Clay County Sheriff's Office. http://www.ktvu.com/news/mobile-app-ktvu/loud-fart-gives-away-suspect-s-hiding-spot-leads-to-arrest

I read a different source for this story earlier that said 3 of the dogs that weren't aggressive were put up for adoption which to me should be it's own news story.
