XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX says,
What's a Durian melon?BGourley says,
It's common in China and Southeast Asia. It is sized and shaped about like watermelon, but with a spikey exterior.It stinks like cheese and has a consistancy that is cheese-like as well.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX says,
better question...have YOU ever eaten one? Must have been an interesting occasion...BGourley says,
No. I haven't.The stink is tremendous. A lot of places only sell them frozen because of it.

It's not a melon. Lovely stuff.StacyJane says,
It smells like baby poop and apricots...GROSS.oopsalittle says,
I brought one home once to try and I'm never going within one kilometre of one ever again. Took days to get smell out of house. Wish someone had warned me.oopsalittle says,
