i know one way for sure select good durians. Last time i watch my dad do. The seller intro say the durians very good. So my dad just say 'O.K..' and decided he wanted one of the 'good' durians recommended by the seller. Instantly tell him open. Then when open LPPL. So my dad did not buy and tell him open another one..haha.. open until got good one then buy.
haha... seller LPPL.. cause he say good. open up no so good. So not our fault. open em all!!!

Actually we did it in Malaysia. Seller was quite pissed. But cause also got lots of customers ma. So all the customers just wait and see what my dad do and the reaction of the seller. So a combination of these made it possible to not purchase any of the durians that are not 'good' after they were opened. he he.
My dad just say 'if not good, dont say good.'
lol!

last night in station, my ah sir was mentioning about his 50 cents 101 durians after we had our fill of pizzas & spicy drumlets. He was regaling us about his expertise of pickling durians that the store owner was suggesting he sells durians instead.
our ladies were suaning him about not buying durians for us. And another officer reminded us or a very ancient durian feast at the balcony of police cantonment complex.
One of our ladies then share how her family will always book 8 trees at a Malaysia Durian Farms and how they drive to Malaysia to Bring back their durians.
She advised, like true durian expert, that durians from malaysia are cheap at good and the season ends latest at 26 July.
