Title: Favorite Fruit?
Post by: Honeycomb on October 22, 2015, 06:50:28 AM
As the title says. What is your favorite fruit?  :biggrin:

I have fallen absolutely in love with guavas. The small ones. I could eat them by then ton, but they are really hard to come by. Totally made my day today to get a whole bag of them (from someone special). The smell is incredible, and they just make me happy.

What's your favorite? Why?

I have always loved pears!! They have to be ripe though.....a pear that isn't ripe yet is terrible. Not really sure why I like them so much. I guess a combination of the texture and flavor.

I like ripe ones, too.
When I think about pears, I am always reminded of "City of Angels", where the girl tries to describe their taste to Seth.

Pretty much anything slightly tangy.  I love strawberries if they're tart, raspberries, and sour cherries.

There aren't any fruits that I eat in of themselves. I'm horrible with my health, I know.

I like some tomato products. Never eatten one itself, though. Lol.

I don't like tart fruit, in fact it usually causes an allergic reaction which causes my tongue to swell ... But I love banana as an every day fruit. My favorite is fresh Mango and Peaches though!

I mostly eat apples, pears, and oranges (and similar things like clementines). I'm so basic and boring. ;)

I'm allergic to most fruits, although some I could eat as a child but not anymore. And some I can eat but only an limited amount.

The ones I can eat and actually like are pineapple, grapes, raspberries, kiwi and mango. But like most people, I don't eat fruit often enough.

At work (I work at a preschool) we only serve apple, pear and banana. I can only eat banana since the other fruits give me severe allergic reactions if I ingest them. But man, I would love a juicy Granny Smith apple on some days!

So hard to choose..
I like pineapples, apples, bananas, strawberries, pears, peaches...
If I had to pick one I would go for apples, because you can make so many nice things with it!

Grapes!! And strawberry and tangerine!

I miss fruit :( sadly my OAS doesn't allow me to eat fresh fruit (except for the occasional apple, or rarely a couple grapes or strawberries)

I like grapes and apples. I absolutely hate the skins on apples, though. Not sure why, I just don't.

Pears and pineapples! Especially on a bowl of cottage cheese, mmmmm....

I love fruit - given the choice between cake/icecream or fresh, sweet fruit for dessert... I'll go the fruit any day.

First thing that comes to mind is Nectarines - ripe, juicy ones.... YUM!  And I love ripe mango and watermelon too  :satisfied:

Bananas are a definite go to yearround, but in Minnesota I LOVE LOVE LOVE seasonal locally grown strawberries in June, and Honeycrisp and Sweetango apples in autumn.

Blueberries and peaches. Mmmm, nothing like biting into a fresh, sun warmed peach in the summer. Sooooo delicious.

I was affectionately known by my family as the 'fruit bat' because I eat tons of fruit. Yellow or white nectarines and pink pomelo are my favourite fruits of all time.   :apple:

I´m a vegan, so I´m depending on fruits and greens. If I can chose from fruits and berries I´s say raspberrys and avocado. Raspberries for flavoring stuff like overnight oats and oatmeal, and avocados because I eat them daily-and you can use them for all kinds of yummie purposes.
Title: Re: Favorite Fruit?
Post by: Honeycomb on November 06, 2015, 05:45:22 AM
I miss avocadoes, they are kind of impossible to find here. And so delicious and versatile, totally agree.

oh my God, i LOVE almost all fruit. the only fruits i really can't stand are tomatoes and pears. i literally cannot eat tomatoes by themselves, they're disgusting.

my very favorite has always been strawberries, but depending on the season and whatever meal it's going with it can change. i really love sharing mangoes with my boyfriend in the summer, and i love eating cherries off of the cherry tree in my backyard during the spring.

I love all fruit.  But for snacking at work, it's hard to beat apple slices.

I second that. I have at least one Royal Gala apple a day at work. They're the best snacks because they don't make you feel full or leave crumbs all over the keyboard.

I like lots of other fruit as well, though: tomatoes (yes, they're technically a fruit), strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, water melon, honeydew melon, grapes, bananas...

Post by: DazzleKitty on November 20, 2015, 01:47:31 PM
I don't eat a lot of fruit (though I really should include more in my diet). But I tend to like my fruit to be sweet, not tart. My favorites would definitely be strawberries, grapes(red or white/green), and cherries. Though I also like a good nectarine, red plum, or orange as well.

I love apples.....as long as they are in a pie. Does that count? XD
Title: Re: Favorite Fruit?
Post by: daisyd on November 21, 2015, 03:57:38 PM
I like apple juice, and could drink it all day. Eat an apple, not so much - which is awful cos we have four apple trees in our garden! Three are eating apples, and the fourth is cooking apples, and I never touch a single one, we tend to give a lot of them to the neighbours (but we do get eggs from their chickens in return).

As for fruit I do like - bananas, cherries (we also have two cherry trees so they don't go to waste!) strawberries, nectarines (not peaches - I hate the fuzzy skin on those) and grapes.

Post by: archidraca on November 21, 2015, 04:24:06 PM
I love most fruits but my faves have to be Elberta peaches mid-season or Chicago figs off of our tree.  :dribble:  Other strong contenders are homegrown raspberries (not so mushy/watery), cherries, watermelon, strawberries and green grapes. The kids are really fond of bananas and cantaloupe too.  :P

My mom used to make banana pudding all the time when I was younger because it was my dad's favorite dessert. Now I love everything banana.

Mangoes, definitely.  The best thing about the Christmas summer season down here is the stone fruit, so yummy!  I also reckon that cherries are a good substitute for chocolate-- if you're trying to be good, just pig out on cherries :).  Oh, and lychees!  I could just live off summer fruit.

For the rest of the year, bananas.  But they have to be yellow with no brown spots, of they get turned into banana bread  :banana:

Pineapple and kiwi are good too when they're really sweet.

Every year I make a pilgrimage from Melbourne to North QLD over the Christmas holidays, and every year I look forward to all the delicious mangoes and lychees I will get to devour  :dribble:

Pineapple (not able to eat it anymore  -_-) is my favorite. I'm loving cantaloupe now that I know how to pick a good one.

I love fruits and veggies (perfect for snacking and smoothies!) Being from southern Ontario means my love of fruits started early (known for it's wide expanse of wineries and fruit orchards)

It's hard to narrow down my favourite fruits, so here's my top 5:

1. Peaches
2. Blueberries
3. Mulberries (used to have a bush of them behind my apartment in London. Nothing like right off the vine for baked goods <3)
4. Watermelon (especially with a little bit of salt. I blame my Japanese neighbour for getting me into doing that :P)
5. Lychee

and a special shout-out to wine (hey, it's made of fruit :P)

Ok im a fruit fanatic.  I usually only have 1 serving. (I know I should have 1 more ) but mainly vegetables I pile on my plate. I LOVE sour fruit too btw.

1. Green Apples
2. Blueberries
3. Watermelon
4. Green Grapes

I could list more but those will do for my list.
Title: Re: Favorite Fruit?
Post by: Loona on January 05, 2016, 11:04:26 AM
watermelon, hands down. it always was my favourite, and I can eat a ridiculous amount out of it. during summers I could live on them, eating nothing else. I wish it was available all-year-round (nah, the imported "winter-ones" taste nothing like it, and are terrible) :(
I also love muskmelon, too bad that's also only available in summer. another big favourite is pomegranate (but I hate to open it -_- ), and berries are also something that are hard for me to resist. any kinds of berries. (and I also really enjoy these in liquid form the most. berries, I mean).

during the winter my favourite seasonals are mandarines (not clementines, the smallest, easy to peel types. for some reason this type is only available in the winter here). I'm also nostalgic about this, these (together with peanuts) are what Santa Claus usually leaves in children's shoes by the morning of the 6th of December, so when I eat these they usually remind me of my childhood days around December.

I love fruits. I consume them daily or almost daily. they are a great type of office snack for me. I usually eat at least 3 times while at work. lunch is cooked food, the other gos I usally like to keep smaller (or at least less carbo-hydrate-y), and while I could also go and munch a chocolate bar or cookies, I try to go with fruits instead as much as I can. I usually start Monday morning at the grocery store just round the corner, on my way to the tram that takes me to my workplace, and buy the week's load of fruit snacks, which I then slowly consume in the office throughout the week :P
