Not me. Have you? I just looked it up on wikipedia and it sounds delicious.

Tracy

No. I just saw it on the travel channel. It sounds stinky, but good. I'm going to see if it's at the farmers market.

What does it smell like? Everyone says it smells really bad, but no one know how to describe it. Fish? Butt? Skunk? Eggs?

They say it's banned in the airport and stuff like that.

like you ever heard the term you can almost taste how it smells? well, it's a really distinct and pungent smell....

I'd say it's pretty close to rotting eggs but sweeter? if you can imagine that...


it's really soft, almost has like a mango type texture

be brave and eat one, I just can't imagine something smelling so bad tasting good....but my parents love it, I really guess if i could just down it real quick then it'd be okay, but it fills the room really quick and if you put the rest in your fridge in tupper wear, it'd still stink up the fridge


my mom tried to bring 4 back from vietnam where they had it fresh and customs definately said no

and i love the smell, every time i smell it, it makes me hungry.. the asian farmers market has it.. well during season i think.. but as i said, they arent nearly as good as the ones fresh off the tree.. try it! but just know, im probably the only white kid in the u.s. to like it.. lol

lol, I haven't had my mustang in quite some time......so that is not me.


my next mustang will be a teal 93 Cobra. I will not settle for less.


My mom's best friend out in Cali, says they are fairly fresh out there and when they get some, have sent some this way....one of my buddies when we were younger tried some, but he didn't care for it too much.

I'm more fond of fresh lychee

guavas are the **** w/ red spicy things.

i've tried durian...almost puked cuz the smell blasted down my nose and choked me while eating it. then i chipped a tooth cuz the gagging made me bite on the seed...i was 7.

lychee is the bomb though.
