Yes I have. And I'll will get to do that again in August when I go to Thailand (Woowiee!!)
(A note about Durian, the taste of the meat itself is sweet, it's the scent that turns people off. I lived in Thailand until I was 10, so I get used to it, and really love the fruit. I'm fortunate enough to live in LA where they do import some when it's in season. The scent is reminiscent of cooking gas, if you're curious, but a little stronger. If you get the chance I would recommend you trying a bite. It won't kill you. Plus you'll know and be able to tell people that you had the King of Fruits.)
