That's kind of how I feel about durian in general, although I have no idea if we picked a good one, since we had no idea what it was when we bought it. True story-- bored college students go to Giant International Grocery Store in Ohio (yes, really, Jungle Jim's is a wacky and wonderful place), find the weirdest-looking fruit, take it home, and go around the dorms showing our new friend to people until we run into someone who knows what it is, who wisely tells us to go eat the damned thing before it stinks up the whole campus.
