Probably strawberries and Mandarin oranges. They are so easy to clean and eat. Honey mangos are also good.

They are said to taste like banana mango, but they go bad quickly and taste bitter. It's why you probably haven't heard good things about them and why they don't sell well in stores other than a farmer's market.

They have an extremely short season in late September. If you don’t live in the zone where they grow it’s unlikely you’ll find them. There’s a pawpaw festival in southern Ohio if you live near there, and I’m sure other states that produce them might have similar events

Imagine being such a pretentious twit that your favorite fruit is some tropical oddity that you can only get in speciality markets AND that you refer to it by the plant's name instead of just calling it "yellow passion fruit" because you're just so goddamn unique that you have to make sure no more than one percent of people can immediately identify what you're referring to

Super ripe tiger stripe figs are one of my favorites, for sure, as are perfectly ripe red or yellow plums, and good varieties of apples. But for sure my absolute favorite is wild blackberries. Storebought blackberries are universally complete shit because when they're really ripe they're practically impossible to store or transport; they squash or go bad in like one day. But if they're super ripe, and picked fresh, they're unbeatable.

I’ve actually found paw paws in the wild on multiple occasions and eaten them. Really weird fruit. Definitely would agree they are kind of like a banana mango mixture. They have a way creamier texture though. They bruise extremely easily and go bad super quickly. Definitely a fun novelty but not something I’d wanna eat all the time

Shit ton of these on grandads farm.
I like to wrap them in foil, then put them on the grill after the steaks or burgers are done.
By the time your finished with the main meal, dessert is ready. Just crack them open and eat with spoon.
Also, use in smoothies when raw (take out those fucking seeds)

I'll have to try this. You can also do the same thing with a banana, don't even have to foil wrap them, just grill them in the peel for an hour or so. Comes out like banana pudding inside.

True. They have to pick them before fully ripened to withstand the shipping and storage so they are never vine ripened. Usually they're flavorless and not juicy.
