Smells like hell, taste like heaven


Most of the people of Davao City loves durian so much. It looks like very thorny with a thick layer of skin but very abundant in protein content. They come in many varieties such as Chanee, Arroncillo, Montong , Cob, Puyat, and the native Davao variety. Durian weighs from 4 kilos and some will reach up to 9 kilos per fruit. The price per kilo depends on the availability of the fruit because durian fruit is seasonal. Most durian planters harvest their produce at the month of august where they are also celebrating the Kadayawan festival. Durian fruit during that time can be seen in almost all of the fruit stand in Davao. Tourist visitors used to feature them in their story. Most of the tourist visitors tried to taste the Durian fruit but most of them said that it has a very bad smell but after tasting it, they give positive comment on it for they like the taste of the fruit so much.
