We finally tried it:
We're not sure if they're engineering odorless durians or what, but it really wasn't as bad as we'd been told. I can imagine that a rotten one wouldn't smell too good, but our little piece wasn't pungent at all. It tasted fine. There was nothing offensive about it, and nothing great either. Ian thinks it tasted like a sweet avocado. The aftertaste, however, wasn't so charming. Also, we're not sure why, but when we look back on eating the durian we feel really sick. So, there will probably be no more durian for us, but at least we can say we tried it.
