"Short change" of Durian

Recommended Posts

Aiyah, should have researched before I buy durians.

 

Have not buy and eat durians 4-5 years liao, today decided to buy and I think I got chopped carrot.

 

Asked guy for D24 but he said sold out and recommended dunno what "hei ding" very crazed stuff in penang now.

 

He ask me take 3 but I say too many, take 2 will do. He cut and weighed the 2 durians, 6 kgs . . . . and $20/kg..... total $120.

 

Taste so so lah, thick and creamy texture with a slight sweet taste, nothing special. Nana! Got chopped carrot? I always kena "ah chaned" HAIZ!

 

Any durian expert can advise? I only eat once every few years.

 

hei ding = black thorn? its supposed to be bitter... not sweet...  and $20/kilo for that seems too cheap... 

 

personally i dont like it becoz i can find durians from 818 abt the same price as black thorn and way more bitter...

 

dont ever buy wat the stall owners recommend...  they recommend only wat nobody wants... and those that are more expensive... if you are a regular... thats another issue of cus... ..

Collect some "samples" and send to AVA Singapore to check lor. If the report never come back it can only mean that all at the laboratory KKK liao.

 

KKK as in Kong Ka Kiao (mati)

 

JK, pls don't send sample of any kind...

 

On serious note, with YouTube these days...seller finds it hard to smoke savy durian buyer.

I think all these names is largely marketing hype.

 

When I go I just ask for bitter one and within my budget I buy. I don't pay for 百年老树 durian.
