Cold Fuji apples

Bananas. 30 minutes later it's "hello fibre and potassium, time to visit the loo!" But seriously, there are so many great fruits.

Some from me: Blackberries are my hands-down favourite (and available everywhere in the wild in the UK autumn), raspberries, apples (so many varieties), navel oranges, mandarins, dragon fruit, watermelon, pears, rockmelon/cantaloupe, soft peaches (rare; most need a hammer and chisel), plums, damsons (in jam), and grapes.

I suppose I am a basic bitch - Honeycrisp apples, Mission figs (fresh), haas avocados and the wee golden Champagne mangoes are the best IMO.

Oranges, though? Valencia or tangelos are flavorful, the navel oranges are bland nonsense.

Daisy Lane tangerine. Super sweet and small with zero seeds. Easy to peel. The perfect tangerine. Cuties are garbage compared to Daisy lanes.

Pink lady apples, Sugar Bee apples a close second. Both crisp, but SB being sweeter and a bit crunchier. Pink lady gets me with the sour though, so good.

Cara cara oranges for sure. Shower orange of choice. So juicy!!

Normal red cherries in the summer. None of that rainier stuff.

Manga nunu, the one with the little nipple at the end. So sweet.....

Fuji apples when I make apple cobbler.

For just sitting there eating peanut butter on an apple, a honeycrisp. I used to go for Galas because they were cheap, but lately I decided $1 more per pound of apples is better than occasionally eating a dozen donuts when I want something sweet. Overall, just better to spend more money on healthier food than to absolutely optimize my grocery budget then binge on junk food when the optimization freaks me out.

Zamli dates. Jazz Apple. Pink lady apple.

I love Jazz apples but pink lady never grew on me. They are like polar opposites, I think.

Pink lady is my favorite apple ever. Crisp, sweet, sour. Perfection. I eat them almost every day.

del Monte gold pineapple. I bought it when they were out of my regular canned pineapple and now I can't go back

intensely_human ,

What color pineapple were you eating before?

pelletbucket ,
@pelletbucket@lemm.ee avatar

del Monte gold is a specific strain of pineapple. there are over a hundred varieties

RBWells ,

We get these fresh here, and wow I agree, these are so sweet and flavorful. Even if they don't look as ripe as the other ones they taste better, you can smell them when you approach the display.

I mix the juice with seltzer water

Cara cara oranges. Honey crisp apples. Alphonso mangos. Vidalia onions (not a fruit tho)

BitchPeas ,

Cara cara oranges are so special and yummy.

Sweetango apples and sumo mandarin oranges. Sweetangos are the better honey crisp.

BonesOfTheMoon ,

Lychee fruit is wonderful. Also pomelos, but they are hideously expensive now.

Hummi Klettertoni strawberries taste great and grow well on my balcony garden.

Ojai pixie tangerines are amazing. Sweet, juicy, easy to peel, not too much pith, and a wonderful flavor. Every year when they're in season, I go nuts eating them.
