Good morning and happy Thursday everyone :D


Today's question is

What is your favorite and least favorite fruit ? :drool:

Favorite - hmmm, this is hard to choose I like so many :think: But if I had to choose I would say peaches :love:

Least - easy one pears :disa: It's not the taste I dislike but that gritty texture ;)

Love bananas and oranges.

Do not love tomato (if it's a fruit -- it's classification is still debated 
) or papaya.

I dearly love nectarines, peaches, and plums.

I don't think there's a fruit that I don't like.

My favourite would be pink grapefruit or peaches (although I bought peaches and went to eat one last night and it was nasty so I am turned off those for now).

My least favourite is bananas. I force myself to eat them while pregnant but otherwise I can't eat them unless they are in something (like banana bread).

That is one of the few foods that I couldn't stand as a child and still don't like as an adult.  I've tried to tell people that I don't like the gritty texture and people look at me like I'm nuts.

I love tomatoes, cherries, plums, and pink grapefruit.  That reminds me, I need to raid the neighbor's kumquat tree for "payment" for cutting his grass.

My husband hates pears. He says they taste like biting into sand. I love them.

...with the cats...
it's hard for me to pick a favorite fruit, or to think of a fruit i don't like.

i can only think of one fruit i don't like......pomegranates.

my favorite fruit would be......apples, if they're raw. if cooked/baked, my favorite would be blueberries.

i do bake with fruit quite often.

Where my cats are
A favorite is so hard to pick!  Especially depending on how you use them.  Gosh....I'll say cherries.  Raspberries are a close second; especially fresh or in pie!  But cherries on a cheesecake or fresh.  This time of year we are a fruit crazy house...I bought peaches, nectarines, apples, bananas, grapes, strawberries and blueberries in the last 2 weeks.  Oh and watermelon. I really need my own orchard.  And some plums. 

I think my least favorite are apricots.  I like them sometimes though.

I love cherries. My in laws have 3 HUGE cherry trees in their yard and I love picking them. They didn't grow this year though because of the awful winter we had. 
 They have blackberries, pears, apples and rhubarb too.

Favourite: Strawberries, Blueberries, Raspberries, Blackberries, Watermelon, Dragonfruit, Kiwi, Bananas.

 

Least Favourite: Oranges, Cherries, Peaches, Pineapple. 

Though I will like well grown Blood Oranges or Tangerines, but not regular oranges. And the problem with peaches is that it is such a hit and miss, often I seem to get them when they are flavourless and grainy/chalky, or very mushy. Yuck. No matter how hard I try or research, I am constantly unlucky. So rarely ever go out and get them. Otherwise, I do like the flavour of peach in juices or candies - just don't like eating actual peaches.
 

Altogether never liked cherries, flavour and all.

And I really hate pineapple! UGGGHH PINEAPPLE 
 Even just looking at it makes me go bleeehh.

My favorites are watermelon and strawberries.

My least favorite is apricots, it's a texture thing, the same for plums.
