King of Fruits

The fable of the King of Fruits.

It has long be acknowledged that this spiky, nauseating, pungent and lethal delicacy of the Asian world represents the King of Fruits. I do not know why, but having seen these on sale at a street market, I've concluded that SIZE does matter.

From a distance, it does seem rather large. Compare that against the lady's head in the background. It's at least 20% more than what's on her shoulders.



The monstrosity, pictured against a 4" camera case. Imagine this thing landing on a person's head. *Coffins can be built 1' shorter*

Such a pity, the weather's too warm to consume this. I would definitely have loved to sink my teeth into the thick flesh. For the pros, the smell's not that distinct, even up close. Guess it's nowhere like the village variant from back home.
