Accurate, but only because durian's a seasonal fruit. Can't get it all year round. It's a pretty damn rich fruit anyway, as much as I love it I'd probably get sick after the 4th day in a row.

I ate fresh durian in Singapore and Thailand. Both times it barely smelled like anything, just a very faint egg/onion smell that I could only detect if I put it right by my face. Also tasted like less sweet custard with the faintest hint of onion. Is lack of smell the mark of a good durian or a bad durian?

There are a good deal of strange fruits and herbage that is hard to get outside the country of origin. It's one of the reasons Thai food tastes so much better in Thailand, they have access to those things that either can't be exported or don't have a large enough market to justify export
