Not the right way to buy durians.

 

Big or small size, doesn't matter. What matters most is the size of the seeds. Big size durians may have big seeds. And big size durians v heavy.

 

Real MSW are not big

I know what you mean. I meant relative to he size of other MSW.

 

Real MSW are all flat seed anyway

No leh.

 

My experience is that usually bigger more worth it as better Keat to shell ratio. Those too small durians usually mostly shells with only a few seeds. So the price per seed is higher

For me, there's a sweet spot for size. Not more than 2kg. Too big, there's a chance of partial ripe. Too small, like you said, too few seed, not worth it.

but they say bigger ones not original MSW lei....

Those could be the thai mixed breed that has yellow flesh like msw. Edited by Ender

PRICES of durian have been slashed by as much as 50 per cent as heavier rainfall in May and June in Malaysia, the main source of the fruit here, has led to a greater supply.

 

 

 

Popular varieties like Mao Shan Wang (Musang King), a premium durian known for its creamy texture and bittersweet taste, go for as little as $15 per kg at some stalls here, down from a peak of $35 per kg last month.

Prices of non-premium varieties like D101 or D13, which had earlier averaged around $13 per kg, have also dropped to below $10 per kg.

Sellers said their business has picked up in the past week, with their stocks depleted faster.

At Ah Seng Durian at Ghim Moh Market, daily supplies of Mao Shan Wang are often fully reserved by the early part of the the day and long queues can be spotted daily at the stall.

Likewise, Goh Kwee Leng, 65, owner of 717 Trading, said business has picked up in the last week.

"Previously, customers were buying maybe one or two durians.

"Now, they are buying seven or eight, nine or 10," he added.

Prices for premium durians had peaked at around $35 per kg early last month, due to a poor harvest in April.

There is better news for durian lovers ahead.

Peter Saw, 36, a seller from Delight Fruit, said prices are likely to drop further as a bigger supply is expected with the next round of harvests.
