Durian is quite an interesting fruit. While I wouldn't say I found it particularly enjoyable, it is something I am glad I have tried.

* - I make it
** - I've only had it by making it
*** - I've learned to now only eat it when I make it, because it almost universally sucks at restaurants, despite being easy to do well

1. Abalone
9. Bird’s Nest Soup
34. Foie Gras

No. No. No. My theoretical limit is apparently 97/100.

If the average person in the U.S. has only had 20, I hope their taste buds suck, because they are missing out, and most of the list should be easy to come by.
