24-5-2023 (Guandong) A unique way of eating steamed durian, supposedly originating from Guangdong, China, has recently been circulating on Chinese social media. According to the viral posts, the durian is steamed and garnished with chopped green onions, creating a stir among internet users. However, many netizens from Guangdong have refuted this claim, stating that durians are not typically consumed in the province.
The discussion originated from a Weibo post by the user “treasure copywriter bot,” who shared the supposed Guangdong-style method of eating durian. The post suggested steaming the durian before consumption and adding chopped green onions during the cooking process. The user also asked netizens to share other unusual dishes from Guangdong, apart from the famous steamed durian.
However, numerous netizens from Guangdong have expressed disbelief, stating that such a way of eating durian does not exist in the province. They accused the post owner of fabricating the information. Most netizens found it difficult to comprehend why durians would be steamed and expressed their distaste for the idea of adding chopped green onions to the fruit.
One netizen claiming to be from Guangdong mentioned that they do steam durians for approximately 10 to 20 minutes. However, this comment was met with rebuttals from other netizens who disagreed with the practice.
Furthermore, another netizen shared a highly controversial method of eating durian by combining it with cup noodles, leaving other netizens bewildered.
