The smell of durian like a mixture of rotten onions, cheese and turpentine.
YouTube channel Brave Wilderness published a video in which the researcher wildlife Coyote Peterson (Coyote Peterson) tries two fruits — the jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) and zibethinus durian (Durio zibethinus).
Naturalist notes that the jackfruit has a sweet taste, but contains natural latex which glues the hands. The smell of a durian caused Peterson nausea, and the flesh was so tasteless that the researcher almost couldn’t eat.
Because of the strong unpleasant odor in Asian countries it is forbidden to bring durian in public places and carry in transport. The smell of durian like a mixture of rotten onions, cheese and turpentine.
