I had my first durian at 35, and it has become one of my favorite things ever.
I’ve managed to convert at least one person as well - friend of mine (we were mid 40s at the time) didn’t like it at first, but the second time he came around, and now loves it as well.
Sometimes I order the unique varieties from Year of the Durian - the diversity of durian flavors is mind blowing honestly, it’s not all Monthong or Musang King, there are some crazy durians out there.
Question for OP, were you exposed to durian when you were young? I notice that pretty much everybody I know who weren’t, hate durian

Damn. I might need to travel to other places to try them out
No, but I grew up eating many Korean foods, so maybe that helped? I generally enjoy things with strong/unique flavors.

Woohoo!
