Quotations

The durian — neither Wallace or Darwin agreed on it. Darwin said "may your worst enemies be forced to feed on it." Wallace cried "it's delicious." Darwin replied "I'm suspicious", For the flavour is scented Like papaya fermented After a fruit-eating bat has pee'd on it.

Horticulture, 1973 . Refers to Alfred Wallace, who cited an enthusiastic long list of durian recipes in his book.
