    having spent the last ten months in an elementary school, i've been eating a lot more fruits since we get free breakfast and i've also been buying lunches here as well. we also had a fruit and vegetable program where our students every week got to try a fruit or veggie that they may or may not otherwise eat, and talk about their experience with it.

    so i gotta ask - what are your favorite fruits to eat? how about least favorite fruits? what is a fruit that you've been wanting to try for a long time but just haven't had the chance to?
     
    My favorite used to be oranges, but they've been surpassed by peaches lol. I prefer their more subtle flavors over the harder punching citrus fruits.
    As for least favorite, I don't think I have one? I don't recall having ever eaten a fruit I didn't like at all.
    I'd say dragon fruit for one I've never had but want to try sometime.
     
    After learning fruits are treated with pesticides, I haven't wanted fruit ever since. So, none.

    and before people cry BuT BUt ORgANIC

    I can't afford that.
     
    I love fruits! Strawberries are my absolute favorite. Mangoes, watermelon, and grapes are high up on my ranking. Apples and bananas are okay in smaller amounts. The only one I can say I don't really like is grapefruit. Really curious to try mangosteens because of the Bounsweet line (one of my favorite Pokémon of all time) which introduced me to the fruit.
     
    When I think of fruit I think of the obvious apples and oranges but a big one for me are lemons, because I've always loved lemonade my whole life. When I started to try to make food from scratch I didn't even start with food, it was because I wanted to make pitchers of strawberry lemonade throughout a summer. Strawberries are a classic favourite and always my go-to answer whenever someone asks what my favourite fruit is, but cherries and peaches are both fruits I really like. A really good cherry limeade is absolutely to die for.
    I've had a lot of good memories picking or buying berries with my parents during the summer, so blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries are big for me. I really like pears as well, there was a solid two weeks or so where I was really craving a pear. When I got it, it was more like I was satisfied I got to resolve that craving more than I actually enjoyed the taste of the pear itself, but it was good!
    Fruit sodas are great, and they're usually immediately what I look for when I go to America to find drinks we don't have. Things like Strawberry or Pineapple Fanta are awesome.

    The only fruit I dislike that I can immediately think of is bananas, but only raw, since I'm a total sucker for banana bread. I also hate the strawberry kiwi flavouring in things like drinks and candies, and I really dislike grape juice and soda.

    And while it's not directly relevant, I do have to state that I salt my watermelon! It's a really fun and interesting way to eat watermelon if you've never tried it.
     
    I enjoy every possible fruits. I do replace my meals with fruits, and without hesitation.

    Avocado is one such fruit which I hate. It is absolutely tasteless on it's own. Any similar fruits without any taste are not good for my tongue!

    With that said, fruits like Mangoes, watermelons, grapes, guava, kiwi, apples, and many others are my favorite.
    (Dry fruits as well, thanks to their mention due to the post above this)
     
    I love anything that's mango flavored. I have tried actual mango, but I'm not too fond if it's weird, slimy texture. :x It tastes good... but it feels super weird to me (autistic ftw lol). I also love bananas once in a while, but it depends on my mood as well... as for me, they can be too sweet because of my sensory issues. I also love blueberries, blackberries and raspberries... but they can only be Maine grown. ;w; In fact, Maine is well known for producing delicious blueberries! :D I do like watermelon, but I only like it as the natural fruit... I can't deal with anything flavored watermelon. There's quite a few others I like, but this list is just going to become longer if I keep explaining! 8D
