Date: January 10, 2007 06:45PM To anybody living in the San Diego area, check the Ranch 99 Market, they have fresh durian right now for 4.50 a pound.
Whole fresh Durian! First time I saw that in California, and it's way better than the frozen stuff, taste and texture. Cheers Raw Fruit Festival [www.raw-fruit-festival.net] Health, Fitness and Fasting Retreats in Spain [www.fit-in-nature.net] Re: Fresh Durian in San Diego, SoCal

Date: January 10, 2007 10:40PM If it's from Thailand, realize it's not in season. I have been told by a friend who lived on Hawaii for six months that it's in season there all year round. Various varieties, coming and going with the seasons. But in Thailand, the main season is around June to September. In the south of Thailand there is a short season at the end of the year, but I doubt they export it as the quantity that is produced is very small.

Date: January 10, 2007 10:50PM They are MornThong from Thailand, and Orkos is also selling some fresh in Europe, so it must be in season somewhere in Thailand...

Date: January 11, 2007 02:33AM The monthong season in Thailand starts around May, but in the south it starts even later. My favorite place there, Koh Samui, has it high season at the end of July through August.
The Thai's have figured out how to get durian to fruit year round. If you were there right now, you could get fresh durian. I think the supplies slows does a bit mid February until the real season start. However, there are always some fresh durian around. There are also other varieties in Thailand that have a different season. Re: Fresh Durian in San Diego, SoCal

Date: January 11, 2007 04:37PM Sure, you can get fresh durian in Thailand year round, but just don't expect organic when it's not "in season". This is not currently the season for it. Loaded with chemicals. Having said this, I've also eaten it off season and have sometimes liked it well enough. There are bad ones more often out of season than in season. I suppose this is typical of any fruit or vegetable.
