The Smell of Durian 榴莲的味道

We bought a durian last night. Every family member loves durian except my sister. She always can't stand its smell. But I don't think it is smelly, especially when I am eating it, and I love the taste very much. After eating the durian, my sister demanded us to stay away from her, because she could smell it when we were speaking. I supposed that she was a bit too much.
However, I got the retribution soon. I was at home alone this morning, and my sister left me a bag of bread as my breakfast which costed us much time to find yesterday. She also said something to me, but I was too sleepy to catch her words clearly, because I didn't sleep until 2：00 last night. When I opened the bag, I found the bread was full of the smell of durian. Then I came to realize that I put the bread and durian together yesterday. What was worse, the bread was so stinky that I had to throw it away. T_T
昨晚我们买了榴莲，除了我姐，其他每个家庭成员都爱吃榴莲。她总是无法忍受榴莲的味道.但是我觉得没那么臭，尤其是在吃的时候，而且我非常喜欢它的口感。吃完榴莲后，我姐要求我们离她远点，因为我们说话的时候，她能闻到味道。我觉得她有点夸张了。
但是我马上就遭到了报应。今天早上我一个人在家，临走前我姐给我留下了一袋面包作为早餐，昨天我们花了很长时间才找到这种面包。她还对我说了些什么，但是我太困了，因为昨晚2点才睡，所以没有听清她说的话。当我打开面包袋子的时候，我发现它都是榴莲味。然后我意识到昨天我把面包和榴莲放一起了。更糟糕的是，面包实在是太臭了，以至于我不得不把它丢掉。

呃。。看到这个题目就想起了Durian同学，还以为是写她的呢。。呵呵
@榴莲：你又一次躺着中枪了。哈哈哈哈。
Everyone in my family loves durian except my sister.
She always can't stand its smell.
No need to say "always" since being unable to stand the smell is her habitual characteristic.
After we finished eating the durian, my sister demanded that we stay away from her, because she could (allegedly) smell it when we were speaking.
Original makes it sound like your sister ate the durian, which is evidently not true.
I felt that she was a bit overreacting.
I was alone at home this morning, and my sister left me a bag of bread as my breakfast, which we couldn't find yesterday.
This correction isn't great. I hope someone can suggest something better.
She also said something to me, but I was too sleepy to catch her words clearly, because I hadn't gone to bed until 2：00 last night.
Then I came to realize that I had put the bread and durian together yesterday.
I actually kinda like the taste of durian. Too bad my parents hate it, so we don't get to eat it all that often (close to never).
Too bad about the bread. :( Food shouldn't be wasted!
Sorry to hear that your parents don't like it. Maybe you can eat it outside, haha.
Food shouldn't be wasted! --> The way you say it is like my mum. ( ⊙o⊙ )
But you are right! I feel guity now... T.T
不好意思，我没吃过榴莲…一次也没看过它。
味道怎么样？有臭味儿吗？(･_･?)
哈哈，榴莲是热带水果，所以日本是不多哦。没有吃的时候确实会有一股很重的味道，我也具体描述不出来，不过基本上所有的人应该都会在第一次闻到的时候觉得臭吧，不过有些人吃了以后会觉得可以接受，就像我~ 哈哈。
榴莲的图片：http://image.baidu.com/i?tn=baiduimage&ct=201326592&lm=-1&cl=2&nc=1&word=榴莲
（吃的就是黄色的部分，我觉得口感滑滑的甜甜的，非常不错呀。）
还有对它的介绍：http://baike.baidu.com/view/8160.htm
（mogu可以看一下~ ^^）
不是水果，日本有那样的食物。是发酵食品。虽然闻着很臭，但是吃得很好！哈哈
That's too bad... haha ^^
I've never had a durian. A durian is rare in Japan.
如果有机会，一定要吃吃看啊~ 虽然闻着确实很臭，但愿你不会嫌弃它，哈哈）
I like the topic! hehe, to be honest, I really don't know how bad the fruit Durian smells..
I searched if UK has durian on the Internet, and I found the answer was no. So durian is rare at your place, right?
(人◕ ‿o‿ ◕人) --> I love it! It is as cute as you, haha. ^^
Every time I see the picture in your entries, I can't help drooling. lol
After we had eaten/When we had finished eating/ the durian, my sister insisted that we stay away from her, because she could smell it on our breadth.
I thought that she was a bit /too much/mean/ /....she was exaggerating.
However, I soon got my retribution.
I was at home alone this morning, and my sister left me a bag of bread for my breakfast. This (special) bread was just as difficult to find as the durian.
She also said something to me, but I was too sleepy to make sense of her words because I /didn't go to sleep/stayed up/ til 2am.
Then I suddenly realized that I had left the bread and durian together yesterday.
The bread was so stinky that I had to throw it away.
我吃过，挺好吃。但是我大部分的朋友无法忍受它的味道。有一次，我买榴莲糖给他们尝试。有一个朋友几乎呕吐，站在附近的另一个朋友问是否我们忘记关闭燃气灶具。 我觉得吃的时候味道很好，但是过了一会儿，味道真得很臭。也是这个原因有些在南亚国家的酒店不允许客人带榴莲进入里面吧。
我觉得吃的时候味道很好，但是过了一会儿，味道真得很臭。
---> 对啊，所以那面包我实在是吃不下去，味道太可怕了。
ughhhhh.... durian >_< I don't like it... The smell for me, isn't too bad (seeing as I possess a defective nose, can't smell anything O_O) But everytime I try eating it, I just ...DIE. It's like gagging on a mouthful sickly sweet custard which by the way tastes, how should I put this, EXOTIC? No, that doesn't sound right =.= Trust me, as a food lover, I've tried my best to truly appreciate this unfortunately, to no avail TT^TT But good on you for liking it! You have my utmost respect!!! XDDDD
p.s NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! NOT THE BREAD!!!!!! DX
（To be honest, when I am typing your name, I feel dazzled. O_o haha, but I don't mean to offend you, I am joking. ^^)
It's like gagging on a mouthful sickly sweet custard which by the way tastes
---> Can you believe that I agree with your feeling, but I think it is yummy... haha, because I like the sweet custard. Mmm... actually, the taste of durian is a bit like another food in my hometown. Well, at least I think so, because I haven't asked others if they also think so. XD
Now I feel guity for the bread. >_<
HAHA!!! Custard IS awesome but if it tooooooooooooooo sweet I kinda just... die... X.X (eventhough I LOVE LOVE LOOOOOOOOVE sweets!!!! ♥♥♥♥♥)
really?? what's the name of the other food that taste like durian??? *curious curious* :O
YOU SHOULD FELL GUILTY. nahhhh nahhhh jokes jokes!!! ahahahahahahahahahhaaaa!!!!! LOL durian bread!!!! XDDDDDDD
-->haha, actually it is because of your name, so many n and m. And I can't understand it because of my poor English. T_T
You can also speak Chinese. Wowowow!! I wonder where you are from. Singapore? Or you immigrated to an English speaking country?
This kind of food is called 栗子. Do you know it? lol

Durian bread is disgusting... It stinks when I can only smell the durian but can't eat it. Really really stinks. >_<
Yeah XD I was born in Malaysia so, pretty close well actually, REALLY close to Singapore!!! ^w^ I did speak Chinese when I was younger but I was always the "Banana" in class just because I preferred to use English >_< Ah well, I did move to Australia 4 or was it 5 years ago? so, WHO'S LAUGHING NOW????? HUMPF! (ノ｀⌒´)ノ LOL! XDDDDDDD
Chestnuts? heee heee~ ♪ they look SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUUUUUUUUUTE!!!!!!!!!(ﾉ≧∇≦)ﾉ I never knew that their outer skin was all spiky!!!! It's sooooooooooooooooo cuuuuuteeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XDDDDDDDDD yeah, I've tried that before but it taste...different? It does taste a little weird but I kinda like it XD I wouldn't really say that it taste like durian but maybe the one I had was different? (O3O) I mean, yours is *:･ﾟ✧SPIKY✧ﾟ･:* XDDDDDD
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!! DURIAN BREAD!!! AAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!! XDDD
I thought her reaction was a bit much.I thought her reaction was a bit over the top.
May - if you're trying to use the "bit (too) much" idiom here, here are a couple of good wordings. For some reason "her reaction was a bit too much" doesn't sound good to my ear- I think we generally drop the "too" in the idiomatic usage.
e.g. I ate a bit too much candy (non-idiomatic) vs. your car is a bit much (idiomatic, i.e. it's unnecessarily flashy).
And like your sister I can't stand durian either :)
I didn't know if it is right to use "too much" here, so I wrote this sentence. And thanks to your correction, I understand it now. ^^
Yeah, many people around me can't stand it. It is a kind of mircle that almost everyone in my family like it. haha. But I have to say that it is smelly when I am not eating it. >_<
哦。榴莲，我也喜欢吃，好吃吧
不过，榴莲的味道还比臭豆腐差远了。［哈哈］
（你的中文真好啊！ ^^)
ROAR! my Chinese is sooooooooooo rusty!!!! XDDD
我不该把臭豆腐来说的，榴莲和臭豆腐都只是因为我们文化和生活习惯不同。对不起，不好意思了 。><
你是在哪里吃的啊？^^
