Yesterday, I went to BBQ/Shabu at P Aey's house. We brought over some gelato from Marco Polo; durian, lychee and jackfruit flavor. For us grown ups, it is typical to take a side - love it or hate it. But what about those who never had durian before, ever?
Nong Plern, a 5-6 year old girl, tried it. First bite was enough to make sure she will hate it for the rest of her life. Though she enjoys stuffs like Som Tum, durian is not her thing. Nong Myles, a 1-2 year old boy, tried it. First bite and he loves it. That probably ensures that he will also love it for the rest of his life. Needless to say, both of them were siblings and raised in the same environement.
The Question of the Day is:
Why would a sense of smell differ from one to another? Should the two kids have the same opinion, good or bad, before they learn more about durian and decide whether they like it or not?
All I know is durian is just stinking good!
