Damn you, Sowelu! Now I want bubble tea. Although maybe not durian flavored.

My personal favorites are either lavender or rose.  Unusual but delicious, especially with lychee jelly instead of boba.

And it's so much harder for me to get them now that I don't live on a college campus anymore...

Mmmm, durian bubble tea.  Yum...

As for the OP, there is no way to control what races like what foods.  Heck there's not even any concept of liking foods besides randomly having one favorite food for each person.  Also, there's no concept of plant size I believe--which means everything has the same nutritional value, so one of these will still get turned into 5x rum, or cooked into a little barrel, etc.

Unless you make it a creature somehow. Then when it's butchered, it will produce meat proportionate to it's size. Don't think there is presently a method of brewing it though.

Except smelters. Smelters seem to be unaffected by tinkering in the smelter department. Stubborn things!

I live on a college campus, but being as it's a small college campus in the Midwest, I still can't get bubble tea.  :(

I'd like some fruit, but that plant man keeps eating it all.

Durian? Sure they smells bad, but actually tastes good.

Really.
True.
It's sweet.
No sugar.
Diabestes-inducing.

I've read the durian described as eating your favorite ice cream while sitting in an outhouse, or custard served through a sewer pipe.

Since your sense of smell is a significant portion of your sense of taste, I am a bit surprised that something that reportedly smells that bad reportedly tastes that good.

Stinking Bishop cheese is a lot like that. Quite a few cheeses are, actually.

Seasons are based on Wikipedia saying that they have one or two fruiting seasons per year. It doesn't have specifics.

Not sure how the FREQUENCY tag works atm.
