So The Biscuit was intrigued after seeing Food Network’s super mouth and host of Bizarre Foods, Andrew Zimmern, struggle to eat - of all things - a piece of fruit. He’s consumed turtle guts, rooster testicles, beating cobra hearts, rotten tofu and other malodorous munchies, but he could not handle the notorious durian, perhaps the oddest fruit in the world.

The Biscuit had once planned to use the durian as a stink bomb in high school, but had no luck finding one. But of course, Grand Asia Market in Cary, N.C., a store for everything from the Orient, had dozens of them. And after seeing such an experienced eater fail to swallow a bite, The Biscuit wanted to take a try.

It was… well, after multiple people tried it, The Biscuit decided their faces could tell you everything you’d ever need to know about the so called “King of Fruit.”

Here’s a slide show with some informative captions and good music documenting a person’s first taste of the thing. Hopefully it will answer any questions you might have. If not, ask away. Enjoy!
