at the most they open one slit so you easier to open at home lah..............but looks quite big for the price..............so maybe too good to be true.........

I see some husks are thick so you rugi no meat inside. Nowadays there are stalls that will open and put inside styrofoam box. NTUC I buy is that kind so you can see the meat but you cannot determine meat nice to eat or not haha

I managed to combine with stranger  to buy 3...she took 2, I took 1 and paid her $3.40
In return I used my durian picking skills to find 3 ripe durians as vendor don't guarantee.

I took my durian home and this is my conclusion.
It was ripe and yellow but taste is bland. ..mildly sweet. Can still eat but won't enjoy as much as good quality durians.

Likely to be Malaysian grown Thai durians....as we are in early part of durian season.
