EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the notorious durian fruit, a native delicacy of Singapore hailing from the 1910s era. Known for its distinctive and intriguing characteristics, the durian is an enigma among fruits. Its large size is only surpassed by its formidable thorn-covered husk, which serves as a protective shield for the succulent flesh within. The durian's unique odor is a subject of much debate and intrigue. Some describe it as a pungent, musky fragrance, while others compare it unfavorably to sewage, stale vomit, or even skunk spray. The renowned English author, Anthony Burgess, once famously quipped that eating durian is "like eating sweet raspberry blancmange in the lavatory." Despite its divisive reputation, the durian holds a special place in Southeast Asian culture and cuisine. Its spiky husk conceals creamy, rich, and sweet flesh that is prized for its unique taste and texture. The durian's allure lies in its ability to challenge the senses and provoke strong reactions, making it a truly unforgettable culinary experience. This photograph serves as a testament to the durian's enduring mystique and its undeniable connection to the rich cultural heritage of Singapore. The spiny, smelly, and repulsive exterior belies the sweet and delectable treasure within, making the durian a truly intriguing and captivating subject.
