The best fruit bar-none.

There is nothing quite as rewarding or fulfilling than eating the seeds of a pomegranate. Nothing.

Okay but I still prefer bananas and easy-peel seedless mini mandarins.

They taste like fucking nothing. They're fun to eat, I'll give you that, but the taste is pretty bland, as fruit goes. There are so many fruits out there that have a much more distinctive taste. Mangos and pineapples are my favourite.

Dragon fruit really isn't a fruit you can ship. It's one of those things that you must take from the vine when it's done growing and eat ASAP.

Its bad with those two. But its even worse with honeydew. Its so tasty when its good and just melts in your mouth, yet 85% of honeydews are hard and flavorless. Always the worst part of premade fruit salad.

I've had plenty of cherimoya, mango, strawberries, pomegranate, and about half of the breeds of apple grown in the northern US, but no fruit is as satisfying as a good, juicy peach.

I love grapefruits. Most people have no idea how to eat them, and they get a bad rep. It doesn't help that when they're not in season, they're really not in season.

Never cut them half and spoon out the insides. That's wasteful. Instead, peel them, and then use a knife to remove the unwanted rind from the juicy flesh of each section.

I like them because there's a considerable amount of flesh to eat, so that lengthens the amount of time I can enjoy eating then. I like the tartness without being too sweet or sour, most of all the big vitamin C kick. You just feel really energized after finishing one off.

The best peaches cannot be found in a supermarket. You get them nice and fat for sale at a farmer's market or a street vendor, fresh from the farm...... but the best part is when it's been exposed to sun and is all warm and plump... you bite into it and juice just explodes out of it, it's so sweet and tender you have to sit down and just recover a moment because your senses are so overwhelmed.

I have only had one peach like that. No peach from the store has ever been as good, even when left out in the morning to be warmed in the sunshine.
