I loved it the first time I tried it, but the smell is something to get used too. After you eat it though the smell becomes less and more tolerable. I still love it though. ^__^
Off the Great Wall I'm not sure if you've tried, but if you actually eat the durian, you won't be able to smell it. It just kinda disappears and if everyone eats it you can just be stinky together - no one will smell it anyways, ha!
bigfootlovely dan actually tried durian in one of their earlier videos, I think carmen was still there, and he didn't like it. the fruit they bought wasn't perfectly ripe though. I actually licked my lips at the sight of durian mooncake
I think five kernel with pork is a very traditional flavor...and actually all the flavors you guys mentioned in this video are not crazy for Chinese people thesedays. People have improved the flavor of mooncake you should give them a try. BTW have you guys heard about mooncake stuffed with chives and egg? That should be called CRAZY
I love mooncakes but I haven't ate for a few years already because it's getting more and more expensive Literally broke my heart everytime I pass by mooncake T.T
This year we got a new flavor here! It's a gift from a friend of family. Mooncake with durian+peanuts+yolk flavor. Yes, 3 in 1. It sorts of showing the feeling of the giver.
Team Dan. Loooooove dat Yoke. When you have a flavor opposite with another flavor opposite right next to each other, each one is enhanced to the extreeeeme!!
I always eat five kernal and roasted pork during the mid-autumn festival. The taste is very nice with the crunchy sweet nuts. For the roasted pork, you can barely taste it.
Team Dan all the waaaaaayyy!!!!!!! BTW, that 5 kernels moonscape is actually quite common. There's always a box of this at home during Mid-Autumn Festival every year when I was younger, my mum & grandma would eat them.
I've only ever had mooncake once - a Chinese exchange student staying in my dorm gave me some, and I loved it! It was sweet and a little bit salty, because of the use of cured ham in the filling. I don't remember any nuts, though. Delicious! Definitely not savoury.
Definitely with Dan on this one! Yolks!! My friend made snow skin mooncakes for us this year and instead of the more traditional mung bean filling (even most flavoured ones use a mung bean base), she used pumpkin and sweet potato, taro and green tea!
Wow, that's boss! The only kind of moon cake I've ever had is the lotus seed paste but seeing all these makes me wanna try all of them just for the sake of trying them.
Actually, those flavors aren't too bad. I would try them all. Of course, I've never had a mooncake... I did make a "mooncake" myself, though. Honey sweetened sweet potato wrapped in mochi skin.
Cheese mooncakes is very typical where I am. There is a mooncake with meat filling here. And the roast pork mooncake is delicious. The crust is rather thick and will certainly hold when dipped in hot pot. The crust feels like a pie crust but probably deep fried.
+Sherrie Cam (Katkrazy) Me too and it would drive my mom crazy when she'd see all her mooncakes with the egg left behind! Like a rat nibbled through it she said
I actually think bleu cheese can be quite good in a moon cake! Also, roast pork is such a great idea to save the "5 kernel" stuffing!! I would actually try that, and I HATE "5 kernel" stuffing..
I agree that mooncakes are definitely a sweet food - don't think I could stomach those crazy savoury ones! Also I like making my own when I get the time. They've all been snowskin - there's been taro mooncake, sweet potato mooncake and red bean mooncake. The green tea one is such a good idea! Perhaps next year :)
I'm totally down to try all those moon cakes! The meat one I've heard of but never really tried... Team Mike! I don't like the egg yolk. I usually just have lotus seed paste moon cakes.
AW MAN YES THE ICE CREAM MOONCAKE! I live in Australia so we eat ice cream ALL YEAR ROUND and when we go visit China, my family in china never eat the ice cream mooncakes from HAAGEN DAZ that the have because its "too cold". SO I get to end up eating all of them! Haha I had 1 a day last time. No regrets!
i love durian mooncake! to some people durian smells bad but for some reason, to some others it doesnt. its kinda like how some people like diffrent food
Hello! On September 11 2014, for the very first time I tryed a Mooncake, the one with the egg. It has a similar taste to a fuit we have in Puerto Rico. I would need to try ohers flavor to see wich taste best. By the way Dan, sorry I didn't say anything about you. I like both of you guys! I like when you use the Chinese expressions with the character, I'm learning mandarin and it helps. I enjoy very much your show. Keep it up!!!
It would have been really funny if you guys had bought all of these, put on blindfolds, had a piece, and guessed the flavor. But this is still really interesting!
Lol this is funny cause I work at Costco and I had this Chinese lady come up to me and asked if we had moon cakes. Luckily I watch your videos so I could help her-even though we don't have them haha
Aw I can't believe the 5 Kernel Roast Pork mooncakes didn't have yolks inside! I've never even tried mooncake before but meat and kernels and salted egg yolk.... that sounds really good * _______ * And Dan, as a Frenchie... if you claim you "love" cheese but you wouldn't eat smelly cheese inside a mooncake... you don't _really_ love cheese :3
LOL, I totally see that "DURIAN" mooncake coming from Mike when he asks what's worse than stinky cheese 😉 I'll take #2, #3, & #4...with egg yolk! #TeamDan 😊 Although I've yet to try that durian and chocolate mooncake but it sounds mooncake-licious! 😍😙😋
I actually think durian tastes and smells pretty good! You just have to build some tolerance for it and you'll like it in no time!
Soumi lol didnt must take a lot of training
I loved it the first time I tried it, but the smell is something to get used too. After you eat it though the smell becomes less and more tolerable. I still love it though. ^__^

Oscar Neto I know right? Durian mooncake sounds so good... Though durian any cake sounds good to me. ^__^
Honestly, I'd taste every single one of these mooncakes. Especially durian and green tea. They look amazing.
I think five kernel with pork is a very traditional flavor...and actually all the flavors you guys mentioned in this video are not crazy for Chinese people thesedays. People have improved the flavor of mooncake you should give them a try. BTW have you guys heard about mooncake stuffed with chives and egg? That should be called CRAZY
Nicole Li nope...eww
Yes its a traditional taste, not my favourite. But its already around since my childhood.
Nicole
Nicole Li I would like that :D
I love mooncakes but I haven't ate for a few years already because it's getting more and more expensive Literally broke my heart everytime I pass by mooncake T.T
OMO.......Your profile picture is very funny haha J-Hope !!
I like your profile pic! :D
Yayyy ARMY unite xDDD
Imagine: Durian-flavoured ice-cream mooncake.
That'd be the awesome-st thing ever
100mythfreak ew
That would taste good
that exists in China
There is
This year we got a new flavor here! It's a gift from a friend of family.
Mooncake with durian+peanuts+yolk flavor.
Yes, 3 in 1.
It sorts of showing the feeling of the giver.
Team Dan, love moon-kick with the egg yolk , the sweetness & the egg yolk favor are melted so well together!
Durian Mooncake is so good! It doesn't have the durian smell to it!
Durian is the best smelling thing ever man!
Hack hack
Do you have a drug problem
True rite... juz dunno why people have them.. Durians are like the best food ever.. after meat of course...
Iman Karim Yeah, it's called Malaysian. :P But I guess not all Malaysians like them too.
Kyle Hudsons It only smells nice when you get to eat it. Hehehe.
Team Dan. Loooooove dat Yoke. When you have a flavor opposite with another flavor opposite right next to each other, each one is enhanced to the extreeeeme!!

Team Mike for sure!!! and omg!! chocolate mooncake, ice cream mooncake and green tea mooncake are right up my alley!!!
Definitely with Dan on this one! Yolks!!
My friend made snow skin mooncakes for us this year and instead of the more traditional mung bean filling (even most flavoured ones use a mung bean base), she used pumpkin and sweet potato, taro and green tea!
Wow, that's boss! The only kind of moon cake I've ever had is the lotus seed paste but seeing all these makes me wanna try all of them just for the sake of trying them.
Team Dan all the way! I think that the yolk actually borrows a different, interesting flavor to the mooncake. Dat ice cream mooncake tho... yum.
We have the regular skin and the snow skin version of durian. And i love it! Most of the Malaysians love it!
Team Mike all the way!!! Mooncakes without the yolk are the best!
I am from Texas and I absolutely love the idea of trying a mooncake fried
Actually, those flavors aren't too bad. I would try them all. Of course, I've never had a mooncake... I did make a "mooncake" myself, though. Honey sweetened sweet potato wrapped in mochi skin.
Honey sweetened sweet potatoes? That sounds wayyy too sweet but I wouldn't know since I haven't tried it. I've only had traditional mooncake.
Frooncake
YES.
5:02 is my favorite moment in OTGW history.
Red bean mooncake with eggs! YUMMY, I want one now. And Durian mooncake
team dan! the saltiness of the yolk balances out the intense sweetness of the rest of the mooncake.
Durian mooncakeeee... Goodness from heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ♡♡♡♡
Cheese mooncakes is very typical where I am.
There is a mooncake with meat filling here. And the roast pork mooncake is delicious.
The crust is rather thick and will certainly hold when dipped in hot pot. The crust feels like a pie crust but probably deep fried.
Green tea mooncakes... Yum... My mouth is watering... :D
Team Dan. I grew up with it. So that one
OMG durian mooncake that sounds GENIUS to me!! I need that in my life!!!!!
Team Mike all the way! I always spend more time getting the yolk out than actually eating it, ha!
TEAM DAN all the way!!!
Also Durian mooncakes are soooo goood!!!
Sharkfin mooncake is definitely one of the best aside from sweet beans mooncake. Durian mooncake sounds nice omg I want to try ittttttt
I suggest a taste test of all those mooncakes! :D if possible
Also, the fried mooncake sounds like an awesome idea!
The yolk is the best! Team Dan all the waaaay!
'because the opposite of ice cream is fish!' :-D Mannnn...you guys crack me up! :-D Thanks for the mooncake, um, ideas.
Omg!! Deep fried moon cakes are a genius idea!!!
The first one sounds amazing!!!!
Team Dan! Yolk is life!!
"How is the opposite of Ice cream a fish?!" XDD

Team *Dan* all the way~~
i love mix nut moon cakes, can't get enough of them.
Team Dan! The yolks are great in moon cake!! 👌🏻

Dudes! I tried durian mooncake with black sesame crust in Singapore and it was the bomb! Soooo good!
Green tea moon cake is my favourite one
The cheese mooncake is really good actually,in Malaysia we have banana fritters with cheese.
TEAM MIKE!!!!!! I always take the egg yolk out b4 i eat it
Same! I don't like the yolk. Team mike.
I take the egg out and eat it first because I like the egg lol
+Sherrie Cam (Katkrazy) Me too and it would drive my mom crazy when she'd see all her mooncakes with the egg left behind! Like a rat nibbled through it she said
+Kitty Wayne (Batman) I secretly take a spoon and scoop the yolk out, then I run to the nearest trash can to throw out the yolk.
I actually think bleu cheese can be quite good in a moon cake! Also, roast pork is such a great idea to save the "5 kernel" stuffing!! I would actually try that, and I HATE "5 kernel" stuffing..
I agree that mooncakes are definitely a sweet food - don't think I could stomach those crazy savoury ones!
Also I like making my own when I get the time. They've all been snowskin - there's been taro mooncake, sweet potato mooncake and red bean mooncake. The green tea one is such a good idea! Perhaps next year :)
i would loveeee to try the chocolat mooncakes! love you guys you're awesome!
Team Dan!!!! The moon cake is called a MOON cake because of the yolk representing a full moon! Tastes delicious too :)
Kuala Lumpur!! I'm here!! Autumn Jade,Durian and Green Tea is my absolutely favourite!! I think you just need to get use to it xD
I'm totally down to try all those moon cakes! The meat one I've heard of but never really tried... Team Mike! I don't like the egg yolk. I usually just have lotus seed paste moon cakes.
AW MAN YES THE ICE CREAM MOONCAKE!

SO I get to end up eating all of them! Haha I had 1 a day last time. No regrets!
Durian moon cake!!!!! they are the only one on this list that I look forward to every year ^_^
This made me remember how darn much I miss green tea mooncake .. it's the best!
Watching the video way after, but definitely team mike!
Team Dan - double yolk ftw!
I am a huge fan of you guys ! i watch your videos before going to bed :D keep up the good work :D
gingalaya Boonpun awesome thanks! dont watch the scary ones tho
haha your face @5:07. I would love to try any of those flavor. They sound so mysterious!
definitely team mike here, no eggyolk >.< moon cakes should be sweet all the way. green tea and ice cream moon cake sound delicious... drool...
Durian have a nice scent, its just very strong
Durian moon cake is pretty good.It's one of my family favorite moon cake and I think it's not so new. I've seen it since I was really really young.
It's very popular filling in Thailand.
I love the green tea snowskin mooncake but almost any mooncake with egg yolk
Durian mooncakes are so awesome, dude!!
5:02 It's because like sweet vs savory and salty
i love durian mooncake! to some people durian smells bad but for some reason, to some others it doesnt. its kinda like how some people like diffrent food
I saw they used a clip from your video on danish television. i was really excited, ahahhaha. congrats.
or well, not this video but a video from this channel.
Aia Phoenix yea ppl been messaging us about that :-)
I prefer the savory moon cakes with nuts, but I do love my ice cream and mocha!
Hello! On September 11 2014, for the very first time I tryed a Mooncake, the one with the egg. It has a similar taste to a fuit we have in Puerto Rico.

Durian is nice!!!! fruit wise that is, didn't know there is a moon cake version of it
OMG, I tried Durian moon cake last year, it was awesome. 👏
Traditional mooncakes for me. I find snowskins to be extremely sweet and they are usually super expensive. Lotus paste with no yolk please :)
Team Dan without a doubt! Double yolk is the best, my father and I used to always fight for the yolks
It would have been really funny if you guys had bought all of these, put on blindfolds, had a piece, and guessed the flavor.
But this is still really interesting!
My friend's mom makes THE BEST mooncakes ever!
I saw some of those mooncake flavours when I was shopping for mooncakes with my grandmother.
Lol this is funny cause I work at Costco and I had this Chinese lady come up to me and asked if we had moon cakes. Luckily I watch your videos so I could help her-even though we don't have them haha
its1tym4urmind nice!
Team indifferent! As long as they are mooncakes, they are going in my belly.
TEAM DAN !!!
But more than the egg yolk, I'd actually like to have the icecream mooncake
team damike!!! I could eat either of them! i have tired the durian mooncake and i love it!
I'm Team Dan for mooncakes. My father love it as well. And I think we would love the durian mooncakes, because we love durian.
Team Mike! And oh glob some of these sound so good.
Durian mooncakes sound delicious. :)
I would try shellfish or crustacean mooncake, and also... longxia is not shrimp dragon. it's dragon shrimp.
Cheese, durian, chocolate, green tea, ice cream flavor mooncake. I WANT IT ALL. Not sure wanna try those seafood mooncake.
I love love love lovvveeeee durian, it smells funky but it tastes delicious.
Team Dan!!! Definitely yolkkkk! :) red bean moon cake! 😍
Aw I can't believe the 5 Kernel Roast Pork mooncakes didn't have yolks inside! I've never even tried mooncake before but meat and kernels and salted egg yolk.... that sounds really good * _______ *
And Dan, as a Frenchie... if you claim you "love" cheese but you wouldn't eat smelly cheese inside a mooncake... you don't _really_ love cheese :3
never heard of moon cakes, sound good
Durian moon cakes are nice!! :D had them during the mid autumn festival :)
Durian moon cake is awesome! I love that. :D
As a matcha lover, green tea mooncake is just okay for me I expected a better flavor... Ice cream mooncake that sounds awesome *@*
Gotta try out that lobster mooncake in hotpot. Yup.
Wing hehe idk bout that one
LOL, I totally see that "DURIAN" mooncake coming from Mike when he asks what's worse than stinky cheese 😉
I'll take #2, #3, & #4...with egg yolk! #TeamDan 😊 Although I've yet to try that durian and chocolate mooncake but it sounds mooncake-licious! 😍😙😋
Team Dan!!
Lol fish is the opposite of ice-cream lmao #dead... you got me with that one.
I would love to try all the flavors but I don't even know where to buy them! My nearby chinatown only has the traditional kind.
Team Dan! Love the eggs but I used to be on team Mike until a few years ago... Don't know what my taste changed haha but I guess it's a good thing
