Having been in Singapore for over two decades, exposure to durian is unavoidable. But I am sorry to report every experience has been unpleasant for me. The worst part is, after eating it, I will be burping it back up for the next couple of hours… like it keeps reminding me not to do it again!

The burps are the worst! Smell and taste disgusting.
