Nah, you didn't miss anything. Hong Kong's durian game is... inconsistent, to put it mildly. Supermarkets here generally prioritize more mainstream fruits. Your best bet is hitting up a wet market – those smaller, more local fruit stalls often have better, fresher, and more interesting selections, including durian (if they're in season). Check out Mong Kok or Sham Shui Po; those areas are known for having some really good wet markets. Don't expect a huge selection, but your chances of finding something decent are way higher than in a massive supermarket. Good luck with your durian quest!

Enjoy the ride!
