I would be interested if you (or someone else) had a precise biochemical
explanation that exceptions exist. The simplest explanation I see is that
the quantity of protein you eat with durian cores is much lower than when
you eat tuna (for instance), so it won't perturb your digestion. Same
thing for pollen: very little pollen is naturally present in the comb,
you eat only a few grains.
