Brad Tries Durian

I finally try out the notoriously odorific fruit.

We also spotlight Green Bean Ice Cream Bars and a happy faced world mart Milk Drink.

    Did being frozen mellow it out? I've always heard those things smell like a ripe corpse.

    I think it was more solid after being freezed. Lordcats durian was more gooey and your looked like banana or something. Maby freezing durian makes it good?

      No, it was actually not ripe yet. That's why it was so solid and also why breaking the skin didn't make his house smell like the scene of a month old slasher murder. He made LordKat look a bit like a lightweight, but I recall Kat's durian was ripe and had the proper consistency like... oatmeal? Ewww. But yeah, I'm REALLY familiar with Asian foods and if his durian had been ripe, he would be singing a different tune.

    The mouth of Brad is an odd anomaly, indeed. While other try things in fear this strange beast looks at it with optimism and little fear. Oh lordkat, you don't need to jerk off to a cow... And I knew as soon as I read the "milk drink" it would be that same happy ass kid that wreckless eating did.

    Was there really no ingredients list on the "milk drink"? Or maybe a company name, so you could look it up online?

    Those green beans are not the beans you usually get in like green bean cassarole. in asian cuisine green beans usually refer to mung beans which are the same things bean sprouts in asian cuisine are grown from.

    I call bullshit on your frozen Durian, too. I never had it but i stood next it in a chinese supermarket. some of it was sliced and wrapped in clingwrap (it didnt help much). Id say it smells like vomit.

    In terms of chinese milkdrinks i suggest you try peanut-milk. sounds better than it is, because it tastes like the bitter, red-ish skin between nut and shell...

    Wang Zai is most certanly not untreated milk, which is delicious by the way. In Great Britain they have the best Milk i ever had.

        Damn, dude. You can't act. Don't be a baby about it and do something about it. Instead of cursing at someone who gives you negative feedback (not everyone wants to suck your dick)

        go fucking learn how to not act like your reading from a script.

        Best way to insult someone is to prove them wrong.

        or you can be a baby about it and never look at this thread again.

    A local grocery store carries the horned melon, which is similarly spiky and exotic.

    If it's been frozen, I don't think the seeds are viable anymore.

    Not gonna go for an easy oral sex joke here? Putting big pieces in your mouth?

    This was a really enjoyable episode, LordKat's parts were hilarious. During his second scene I was dying of laughter.

    It's a nice change of pace whenever you bring guests on the show to try things with you, and when you and your wife start up a conversation that doesn't involve the camera it's really nice to see, you guys have good chemistry. I especially liked the small debate you guys had about the green bean bars at the end. "I was reading... cause I do that sometimes." :p

    And you should definitely try things with peanut butter more often!

    Brad, the freezing of the durian really does mellow the smell. I've had it right off the tree/bush thing, and it smells like 4-year-old lucky gym socks wrapped around a corpse stuffed with vomit. Freezing is one way that dealers cope with the smell. I suggest you wait until they are in season, and order yourself some fresh durian to really get the taste and smell.
    I didn't mind the taste so much, but the pudding-like texture just killed it for me. bleh.

    dan STFU and don't watch the videos then. 'you can't act' is not constructive criticism, just bitter and insulting. lordkat is watched by thousands of people every day and asks for nothing in return, so go fuck yourself, it's not like you're paying to see his performence, so he doesn't owe you shit.

    Durian.

    Brad...seriously.
    You thought it had mild, not-so-bad smell?

    Yeah, that's because it was frozen solid before, and that's the thing that must not be done with Durian under any circumstances. Durian loses almost all the smell and taste after it lied in the fridge for at least 5 hours (more is even worse).

    You should really get one ripe Durian when it's season comes up and recap this episode, or made a Part Deux out of it.

    Ripe Durian is notorious throughout the whole world for it's distinguishing smell of ROTTEN CORPSE. When it's ripe, it REALLY smells like there's a dead cow lying right beside you, that got maggots and flies in it and was lying there, like, for the 3 or 5 days.

    It's taste on the other side...man...

    What the hell? Onions? Seriously? Onions?

    Actually, it's was officially stated by professional degustators for a long time now, that RIPE Durian (even though smells so horrible) tastes like strawberry and lemon, something in between these two. Seriously, no onions there. Oh well. At least now you know exactly.

    Lordkat's cow line was the weirdest thing I have ever heard here. However,
    finally someone dares to speak out on the no socks issue: WEAR SOME FUCKING SOCKS BRAD! Who wears a suit without wearing socks?

    Finally, I think we all agree that Brad MUST try a ripe Durian because this one was very disappointing. I've seen Brad react disgusted to things that seemed pretty normal and now he tries the stinky fruit that made all the tough guys sick and...nothing? Or you might skip that and try Surströmming. That'd be even greater.
