I've been making an afternoon snack everyday since last Monday of fresh pineapple (as fresh as you can get in NY State, that is), strawberries and green grapes. As I eat the strawberries, I think...."this is my favorite fruit". Then I get to the pineapple and think...."no...THIS is my favorite fruit". Then I remember blueberries - but they're $5 a half pint right now, so they don't make the snack yet. I just can't decide which I like best....I just know it's NOT kumquats.

For me...hands down...blueberries!! Even when they are outrageously priced, I have to have them! Pineapple and honeydew melon are close seconds.:9
 
I love blueberries too--my first instinct was bananas but blueberries are low carb & bananas aren't. However, I love them both in every form--on their own, in pies, in tarts, in puddings.........you get the picture.
 
I love all the fruits. I'm an equal opportunity fruit eater. Bananas, clementines, grapes, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, kiwis, peaches, nectarines, pears... yummmm!:9
 
I'm like Emily, but there are a few of the more tropical fruits I don't like much. I can take or leave mangoes and I don't like papaya at all. I like saying it though.... PA-PA-YA!!!:p
 
I love mangoes. They remind me of the Virgin Islands. I love fresh pineapple and local strawberries. MMMMM, blueberries, raspberries, bing cherries. But I think the fruit I couldn't live without is bananas. I have at least one a day and probably stop at the store for bananas at least twice a week.
 
Another non-discriminatory fruit lover here. Whether a fruit is stamped Dole, Driscoll's, Sunkist, or a farmer's market find it ALL has my name on it:9

Mangos. Nothing else comes close. But the kind you can buy in Jewel/Kroger/Dillons/Walmart etc. are not real mangos. In fact, I can't stand them at all. If that is all I ever tasted of mangos, I would hate them. You have to go to a good Indian or Asian market to get a real mango. And you must buy them in season, otherwise they're terrible. The flesh should be soft and smooth as velvet. I know that nobody in my extended family had ever tasted a good mango until I turned them on to one. You can't buy them at corporate food stores.

I don't much care for fruit when I can have a piece of cake. However, when I do force myself to eat fruit, which is daily, I like strawberries sliced thin with a bit o' splenda, cantaloup, mangos, plain unsweetened applesauce, grapes, and raisins. And watermelon in the summertime be da bomb.
