What are your favorite fruits?

[LuC]

I love fruit! I eat tons of it everyday. To choose a favourite is difficult. I think it's easier to tell you what I don't like...pears and grapes.

[Russ]

Really? I hate fruit, I never eat any of it. Except pears and grapes, I like them.


*pays royalties to Stu*

[aubergine]

Pears are great with Custard.

[RedWellies]

Everything's great with custard!

[Risker]

Everything's great with custard!

Brussel sprouts?

[auntierozzi]

I love all fruit but I would be really sad without oranges..

[RedWellies]

Brussel sprouts?

It might improve their taste I suppose. Brussel Sprouts are evil beings!!

[sprite1986]

I don't eat much fruit, as I tend to prefer vegetables and that sort of thing.

But clementines and apples are good, and mangoes (sp?) are amazing.

[sandra]

My favourite is still pineapple!

[sprite1986]

Oh I forgot about pineapples!

To be honest, I like all fruit, I just find it really off-putting when you get bits of the stalk (as in grapes) or woody type bits in pineapples, or the white pith in oranges.

[Russ]

Ok, right. I am taking a break from the forum until this totally hilarious joke has been exhausted and you all revert back to your real avatars. See you soon, hopefully.

[emmydu]

i absolutely love fruit!pineapple, pretty much all melon and berries (but especially water and blue haha), apples, clementines, purple grapes, bananas.

[RachelJune]

My favourite has to be canteloupe melon. And grapes. And I love pears too!

[philfox]

i love baked apples filled with lovely organic local jam
no wonder icant lose weight lol

[hollybee]

I've really gone off fruit lately-it's too sticky and sweet. I do love organic Pink Lady and Ambrosia apples (is it my imagination, or does organic just taste better?), though. And raspberries, blackberries, strawberries....

[Lilac Hamster]

LOL, sorry to be a bit slow, what is this avatar joke?

Getting back on topic, I don't eat enough fruit but I do quite like blueberries, which are closely related to bilberries, which I remember from when I was a child and we used to pick them in the mountains on holiday in Wales. I would eat most of them straight off the bush and could not wait until we got back to our caravan! Got very purple juice-stained fingers and face.

Otherwise I do occasionally eat bananas, but not much other fruit.

[puffin]

A few people had a pic of russ as there avatar LH.

[xwitchymagicx]

I only really like gala apples, conference pears, green grapes, honey dew melon, cantaloupe melon and those orange permision whatsit things.

So I guess those are my favourites. lol

[Pisces]

I haven't come across any fruit that I don't like. However, lately with bananas I've been preferring to eat them if their added to grains that can be used as cereal. In my opinion, cereal doesn't taste complete without at least fruit. I like to add nuts or seeds and sometimes flax or hemp oil.

[BlackCats]

Pineapple

(How can anybodys favourite fruit be lemons?)

[Pisces]

In my opinion, someone would have to have seriously durable "sour" tastebuds, if they meant lemons being their favourite by eating them like any other fruit.

[emmapresley]

strawberries when they're super plump soon after picked out the field and warm offa the sunshine..or really ripe bananas.
is anyone watching invasion of the bodysnatchers?

[Odinsfury]

Grapefruit, it's been that way since I was 4.

The only fruits that I don't like are melons, especially cantaloupes.

[DancingWillow]

i don't have a single favorite fruit, but tropical fruits are my favorite group of fruits (pineapple, kiwi, mango, banana, etc)

[Rosehips]

I Love Fresh Figs!

Cherimoyas
Perssimmons

...and could I forget a juicy Papaya?

[pavotrouge]

My favourite is fresh, organic pineapple (non-organic tastes 1000% different, I think...)

[Pisces]

I personally can't stomach non-organic. Surely my stomach is sensitive to those nasty pesticides.

On a positive note---pineapple is indeed delicious, pavotrouge.

[xwitchymagicx]

So I guess those are my favourites. lol

I think honey dew melon is my absolute favourite.

My what I can eat list fruit wise is very short anyway. lol

[Robert]

Cherries!!!

And the season is almost upon us. They are nice here, and I am very very very blessed to live in an area that is chock full of cherry trees - I have been watching the fruit developing on the trees on my way to work over the past while now.

What you buy in the shops, organic or not simply does not compare in flavour to what you get off the tree yourself. Last year I was fortunate to be in Italy during cherry season (which comes about a month earlier there) and gorged myself on the fruit.

Amazing stuff but probably good that it has such a short season. I eat way too much of them when they are available.

[maya]

mangos yum!!!

[scarlett]

I was going to say rhubarb, but is it a vegetable ???

Anyway, I love it, and avocado best

[auntierozzi]

Rhubarb and avocado...there's a lady with taste Yumm!

[tipsy]

hmmm... i would say i do also really enjoy organic pineapple... sometimes i just eat a whole one for breakfast on the weekends... well it turns into an all-day pinapple eating spree for the big ones. but it makes me happy

[pavotrouge]

yeah, the first time I tasted organic pineapple I was all like "Wow, I actually like that stuff!"- I never really like pineapple before and had some traumatic experiences connected with my ex-girlfriend and a pineapple... don't ask ^_^

[Luka]

Mangos. And kiwis. Those would be my favorites.

[Tigerlily]

I never really liked watermelon but recently, I've been eating it a lot and I really like it now. I only like it when it's ripe and dark pink inside.

[yum]

I love cherries too

and raspberries

and mango juice yum

[yum]

Mmmmmm rhurbarb crumble

[Digital Ghost]

Raspberries
2nd place would go jointly to mango's and strawberries

[tipsy]

ive been going nuts on the white nectarines that my HFS has right now....

like 4-6 a day! (and at 2.99 a pound, im starting to feel like an addict with a habit to support!... second job???)

[Maisiepaisie]

Figs, then bananas then apples

[Marrers]

Cherries. I don't really like fruit in general.

[Herbidacious]

Pears. I love pear juice as well. I also love tangerines, but they don't seem to be sold as much as they used to.

[Honest_Goodbye]

Strawberries from my garden!

[touchaddict]

CHERRIES!! I'm on a kick right now, it'll change in a month.

[Chanterelle]

Blackberries, cherries, blueberries, raspberries. And canteloupe!

[foxytina_69]

Figs and grapes in autumn.
