I was out to lunch with some friends at a Chinese restaurant. The menu listed durian puffs, and we decided we had to try them. Cooked, the durian had no noticeable smell, and a subtle taste. Not bad, but not great enough to re-order.

99 Ranch, the big Asian market in these parts, sometimes has durian fruits for sale. Uncut, they don't have much of a smell that I've noticed.
