It has been many years since my family eaten durian. It’s because we heard that some/most of the durians sold may have been injected with some “things” to enhance its growth. Over a month ago, we broke the “curse” and bought a few durians back to enjoy.
There were three stalls selling them by the side of the road. One of them were selling quite cheap, ie. RM10 for 3 or 4 durians. I was aiming for that stall but we ended up at the one beside it. The seller had two types of durians on sale. There were no sign board stating how much each durian costs. I was shocked to hear that his “normal” durian costs RM7 per kg while the better ones costs RM30+ per kg.
We ended up buying 4 or 5 durians of the cheaper type and 1 of the more expensive one. In the end, the expensive durian must have costs nearly RM40. The seed was smaller and the meat slightly thicker. However, I personally don’t think that it was worth the RM40 spent.
I later read in the news that even a D24 costs RM4 or 5 per kg only. I wonder what super duper type the RM40 was. Were we conned? *sigh*
