Strange fruits

Just wanted to share images of some of the fruits I picked up in Atlanta. The first one is dragonfruit...which despite its exotic looks and name...tasted like a watered down starfruit: very, very bland. Hardly any taste at all.

The spikey football you see is a durian. Yes, the king of fruits in all its stinky glory. What does it taste like? Like the sweetest custard with a touch of garlic and an onion aftertaste. Sounds disgusting doesn't it...and yet millions of people around the world, myself included, adore this not-so-humble fruit.
