An Unacquired Taste

Durian is called the King of Fruit, 
but because when I ate it,
I absolutely did hate it, 
that contention is open to dispute.

I dint know what a durian is. It sounds like a laxative. Thank you for the fruit adventure.

haha, I feel bad, insulting this fruit - I probably just don't know how to appreciate it!

Well, I'm feeling guilty about bad-mouthing it - to some, it's a delicacy - for me, forget it!
