Footage shows a fruit vendor skillfully preparing fresh durian at a bustling market stall in Thailand.

The sellers carefully sliced and peeled the spiky fruit before placing the creamy segments into a plastic container for their customer in Chumphon province.

One of the workers, wearing a glove, can be seen carefully packing the durian on top of parchment paper on May 25.

Durian, also known as the 'king of fruits,' has a distinctive aroma and rich, custard-like flesh, adored by many for its unique taste but notorious for its strong smell.

The country is one of the world's largest producers and exporters of durian, with peak season running from April to August.

Durian plays an important role in local culture, cuisine, and economy, featuring prominently in markets, desserts, and street food across the country.
