Learning to love durian: why the world's stinkiest fruit is better than wine, cheese or chocolate {Gadling}
Sep 13th 2011 1:54PM Great post. However, Durians have evolved a long way from this post. As a Malaysia, trust me, I eat this regularly. Right now, D's don't make the cut anymore as they are considered the mid level fruits. There are many more classes which are top notch taste and flavors. Also, Celeste is spot on with the seasons. For some plantations, they fruit hybrids 3 times a year! Right now, the top durian in the market is the Civet King or 'Musang King' Durian which can range anywhere from US$7 to US$13 a kilogram. Early this year I bought a 'musang king' fruit for US$35! Anyway, I have seen some of the oddest durians in my life here. One even with Red contents.
New York cabbies caught overcharging passengers - 1.8 million times {Gadling}
Mar 13th 2010 11:35AM On this side of the world, Southeast Asian taxis have been known to be notorious in overcharging tourists. A good example would be a tourist that landed in Kuala Lumpur and took a taxi to the city which usually costs $25 but was instead charged $200! Not everyone is a crook but it does happen and in most countries.
