That is because it is terrible.

Full disclosure, I have never tasted it, but after smelling it (it smelled like dead people's socks), I have no regrets.

It's actually very good. Sweet and creamy, with hints of savory.

The smell is strong, and off putting to a lot of people, but it's not a particularly "bad" smell. It's just very distinct and very strong.

Opinions differ.

That table will get jerpers excited. As a matter of fact, the jackfruit is considered as Mount Everest for polyembolokoilamaniacs.

Did you take the picture yourself or did you get that off some website, you bad boy you?

"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

I only understood about a third of what you wrote

Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

Durian is like kimchi. Either you like it, or you can't stand it. There's no in between. Love them both.
