Favorite fruit?
 
Myself, I love a nice crisp Fuji apple or a just-turned-ripe banana. What about you?

Jonnymax 07-23-2003 02:29 AM

Fresh rasberries, slightly tart, chilled and washed... I could eat buckets of them

Jonnymax 07-23-2003 02:29 AM

Oh and freshly cut chilled pineapple

CanuckAlert 07-23-2003 10:20 AM

All of them. I am more then willing to try new fruits and have yet to to not like one. Well maybe cranberries but its more the texture of them.

MacGnG 07-23-2003 06:15 PM

peaches, nectarines, plums, pears, pineapple

not fave but good: bannanas, oranges, apples

crazymang 07-23-2003 08:44 PM

perripken 07-23-2003 11:27 PM

Charles Nelson Riley, Elton John, Rock Hudson, George Michael, ... oh man.... I'm sorry!

fallen_angel 07-23-2003 11:30 PM

warm strawberrys, or cold red grapes. also love tomatoes if you consider those a fruit, but they have to be sun warmed. apples oranges star fruit mangos and peaches

dtheriault 07-24-2003 12:09 AM

all stone fruits
good small strawberries. not crappy ones that just look good.
small champagne grapes
mango (i eat it over the sink and just let the juice drip)

Scrub0 07-24-2003 12:15 AM

I forgot to mention mandarin oranges. I eat a box of those every 2 days in the season.

pixelbend 07-24-2003 05:02 AM

I like most fruits but I hate mangoes and pomegranets.

hotzot 07-24-2003 06:09 PM

raspberries...........................................................

hobo 07-24-2003 06:51 PM

I love fruit. Cherries, nectarines, apples, bananas and the heavenly papaya are the fruits I eat most often.

actinic 07-24-2003 09:42 PM

Fresh golden pineapple and frozen green grapes.

SexyCat 07-25-2003 08:16 AM

Strawberries and cherries...YUMMMMMMMMM

dogma13554u 07-25-2003 04:09 PM

mmmmmmmmm . . . . mangos . . . . definitely mangos

Nhanced1 07-25-2003 04:11 PM

Sweet and ripe Strawberries at room temperature. Must be fresh and juicy. I also love a good ripe plum.

Rodney 07-27-2003 01:32 PM

Mineola Tangelos -- sweet and tart at the same time. Very intense.

Ripe honeydew melons. (Maybe not technically fruit, but close). Most people have not had a truly ripe honeydrew, partly because you have a window of about three days between not-quite-ripe and overripe. (And for some reason some never ripen, just dry up -- maybe picked too soon.) But if you hit that short window of opportunity, honeydews are sweet as nectar.

Strawberries, of course. We live in a strawberry growing area and get them both ripe and cheap down at the farmer's market.

Tomatoes. Is a fruit -- if kept at room temperature and naturally ripened. If they don't have a smell, they're no good no matter how good they look. The varietals are much better than what you get at most markets. Most yellow tomatoes are as sweet as any "normal fruit".

A crisp, tart Fuji. It's the king. If I can't get one, I'll go Granny Smith. And if none of the crisp-textured apples are around, I'll take Gravenstein (the applesauce apple), which is a little mushy but supreme in flavor.

Red flame grapes. Not just sweet, but flavorful.

Avocados. They are a fruit, actually. Hass avocadoes (the black guys) are supreme for guacamole because they have the most oil. But greenskin avocados like the Pinkerton, the Gwen, and especially the Reed are marvelous eating avocados, good for salads and sandwiches with much better taste, IMHO, than the Haas. They don't bruise up so easily, either. (Stay away from Fuerte and Bacon avocados if you've got a choice, those are the stringier, drier ones.) The Reed is my all-time favorate avocado -- big as a softball, great taste, almost never bruises up.

TSFM 07-27-2003 07:53 PM

Lots and lots of Kiwi and Bananas

Katyblu 07-29-2003 03:51 PM

mmmmm fruit.... I love peaches and mangos. Also fiji apples are rally good.

And I know tomatoes are fruit but most people don't consider them that. I could eat tomatoes all day every day and never get tired of them. There are so many different kinds that I could never get sick of them.

bobw 07-29-2003 08:39 PM

Fresh raspberries and strawberrys

BubblegumTeflon 07-30-2003 11:19 PM

I've always loved oranges. The smaller ones usually have a lot more flavor.

SpoilSport 07-31-2003 06:47 PM

Asian Pears. If I can't find good ones, then I'll make do with Fuji Apples.

collide 08-02-2003 08:29 AM

Granny Smith Apples or Persimmons! They're good whether ripe and squishy like a tomato or hard and crunchy like an apple.

more fire 08-02-2003 01:16 PM

red apples

tweekman 08-02-2003 06:20 PM

and thing sour or semi-sour, lemons, limes, kiwi.

j8ear 08-02-2003 06:56 PM

Cantaloupe...yummy,

and

Bananas. Quite possibly the worlds most perfect food.

bear

Explosive 08-02-2003 07:38 PM

Oranges and blueberries (which I pick myself)

dimbulb 08-02-2003 08:26 PM

It's got to be a durian....

http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~durian/img/durian.jpg

Its a BIG green thorny fruit, with large creamy flesh inside, and large seeds. VERY pungent aroma. It's actually banned on the subway here, due to its smell, which isnt bad, but very strong and lingering. This is either your favorite fruit, or something you wouldnt touch with a ten foot pole.

Explosive 08-02-2003 08:28 PM

I've NEVER seen that before. Maybe i'm just blind.

Rodney 08-03-2003 05:45 PM

Durians are a really big deal in Asia, but fairly obscure in the U.S. A Chinese friend once told me that it's hard to get a good one here. Dimbulb, where are you writing from.

cheezhead 08-03-2003 06:17 PM

I know alot of fruits and really don't like any of em, i just put up with them.

bundy 08-03-2003 06:36 PM

wow
tough question.

iŽll have to list a few here...
mangos
pineapple
and
lychees

but i think that grapes would have to be my fav simply because they are not just great by themselves, or with cheese, but when made into a good wine, then they are the greatest.

frankx 08-03-2003 06:57 PM

Georgia peaches,
Louisiana strawberries,
Black plums

collide 08-03-2003 07:00 PM

UGH! Durians smell so bad! The stench is enough to prevent me from eating one. Quite a handy defense mechanism for a fruit (not to mention and the spikes!). Apparently it's not enough to keep people away. =P

fuzzix 08-04-2003 06:32 AM

Kiwi fruit, though it makes me kinda allergic... how lame is that? :((

Looften 08-04-2003 03:37 PM

Mangos. It's best if you just peel off their leathery skin and eat them directly. The flesh tastes like... mangos. They're very juicy and have a citric acid tinge to them.

pangavan 08-05-2003 11:30 PM

lichi nuts, but they have a musky aftertaste

Ripsaw 08-06-2003 12:32 PM

I just had something called a yamamomo.
Japanese 'Mountain Peach'. Yum!

Does anyone know where I could import these things from?

tj2001cobra 08-06-2003 04:14 PM

I like all kinds of fruit, but pineapple is probably my favorite. As long as it is fresh.

Grapes are really good. And fresh peaches. And firm unbruised bananas. And ..........
