"favorite fruit" thread

[ben909]

"long ago when i joined there apparently was a background thing about asking people their favorite fruit, i must bring this old conflict back up somehow"

Oranges or grapes, easily.

Apples used to be a hit with me as they're locally-grown.... unfortunately I have to completely abandon apples at this point due to a fructan intolerance I discovered in the past year or two. A shame.

 

[ben909]

tomatoes tend to be the most eaten on my end, although there are mangos, raspberries, and sometimes stawberries will leave one out to bait another user in

If we're going to play the "botanist's definition of fruit" card, throw green beans and peas onto my plate as favorites.

There are just too many good fruits.
Tomatoes, mangos, kiwis, bananas, blueberries, raspberries, pineapple, pears, grapes, gooseberries..

 

[Xitheon]

Raspberries with melted chocolate and clotted cream.

Decadent? Moi?

 

[Raever]

Kiwi's are my jam.

 

[Connor J. Coyote]

Watermelon.

 

[Baron Tredegar]

Bold of you to assume I even like fruit or vegetables.

 

[beanie the sleepy kitty]

Raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, bananas, watermelon, kiwis

I was going to say pineapple, but then I saw that tomatoes count as a fruit.

 

[Fallowfox]

I found out 'tomatillos' or 'husk tomatoes' exist today.

I have never seen them in the shops...what do these strange and alluring vergables taste like?

"even if you don't like them the one you hate the least would be your favorite "

 

[лОРИк]

Strawberry. Yum.

If thats the case then I guess peanuts and pecans are okay if those count.

@KimberVaile I mean apples. Gala apples.

If you're a wolf, apparently the answer is 'Banana'.

I have eaten them, but only prepared as an ingredient of some Mexican salsas.

I can't claim a favorite fruit. I like many of them.

Do they taste substantially different to 'normal' tomatoes?

 

[reptile logic]

I couldn't say. Once mixed with onions, peppers, cilantro. . . they taste like 'salsa'. I've seen them used raw and roasted. My guess is that they use the fruit primarily for their firmer texture. They don't break down to seedy mush like tomatoes tend to do.

(edit: They are a staple in green salsas. I have only seen them used green)

Mine was.

 

[LustiTea]

I personally love crunchy green apples, pears and pineapple.

 

[AlexTheMule99]

Raspberries.
