Do you like fruit?

[swayinOtis]

When I was younger I would eat oranges and bananas but that was about it. And I didn't eat them that much. I would rather eat snacks and sweets. I still love all that stuff but now I also just love fruit, all kinds. I'm glad I can appreciate fruit. I think it's good for you.

I have this friend. He's real overweight, about 375. Every time he comes over he drinks a giant bottle of coke and he eats giant bags of chips. Tonight I offered him some sweet gala apples. He laughed out loud and say he hated fruit. I hate to see him eat like does. I don't get it. Fruit is sweet. I guess it's just not filling enough.

I love all kinds of fruits ......

It's always nice to eat some fruits after dinner or when you're up for snacking

I love bananas, but fruit NEVER EVER replaces a good snacking food when you're hungry.

Up until recently about the only fruit I'd touch was grapes and peaches. Lately, I've really been on an orange kick (can't wait till the Florida oranges are back in season.)

I dunno, when I'm hungry I'd rather have a nice ripe peach, a tart plum, or some strawberries than a bag of chips. Now if fruit wasn't so damn expensive I'd eat it a lot more often instead of chips.

Oranges are good, strawberries, peaches. Though I need to try some more USA fruits cuz I'm addicted to Australian fruit.

I could eat a peach for hours.

 

[Ameesh]

mangos are the best fruit!

my mom forces me to eat fruits....apples, pears, oranges, all types of stuff....so i can grow taller (yea right) im 5'6 and 14, so i dont mind to get taller...

 

[Lars]

I wish fruits would be cheaper.

Yum! Glucose! Fruits kick! Strawberries, raspberries, pineapples, cherries, blueberries, and peaches are the best... but when they're not available:

apples are good too

<----munching on an apple atm

One of my gal-pals gave me a whole bunch of the *best* oranges in the world the other day, fresh off the tree outside her door. Heaven! I love berries too, blackberries, rasberries etc, but they have to be fresh, not storebought (they're never ripe from the store) which really limits how often they're available. Bananas were designed strictly for breakfast, good stuff. I'm not a kiwi fan, nor do I like apples much, but fruit definitely takes the place of lots of snack foods now that I'm in college. No freshman 15 here.

I've always eaten more than my fair share of fruit. D

My grandfather has persimmon, fig, and satsuma trees, so I eat those whenever he sends them to me. Lately I've been making smoothies everyday for a snack between class and work. 1 mango, 1/2 papaya, 1/2 can pineapple, 2 bananas, and 2 cups of banana-passionfruit yogurt and a little ice makes an awesome smoothie (actually, huge pitcher of it, which I split into 2 servings! ) and half the pitcher holds me from lunch at noon till dinner at 10 pm.

The problem with fruit is balancing the amount of fruit you buy with the amount you consume so that it doesn't spoil before you get to eat it and also so that you don't have to go to the store every other day to pick up more! :|

Of course the usual oranges, bananas, grapes, peaches, watermelon, honeydew but Asian pears are especially juicy and delicious.

 

[Fatdog]

mmmmm.......melons

 

[LiLRiceBoi]

When i was a kid fruit was like all i ate. Now i'm eating less of it.

But its still a great snack.

 

[melly]

love bananas, strawberries, honeydew, pears, pineapples, watermelons......

but skoorb's right....when you got the munchies, somehow a piece of fruit doesn't cut it.

linkypoo

 

[Freejack2]

Now that we have an orange peeler, I like oranges again.

 

[Mephistopheles]

I love watermelon more than anything. When I have a ripe watermelon in front of me, I will eat at least half of it and I will start to have serious stomach pains after. I know I will be in pain, but damn, ripe watermelon is awesome!

 

[udonoogen]

no fruits or vegetables. come to think of it ... we dont even have groceries. we've been eating canned food and out for a couple weeks

 

[Elledan]

I like fruit more than any kind of candy or junkfood. In fact, I haven't eaten candy in a long, long time

*goes away to fetch himself another apple*

 

[Jfur]

I eat fruit every day. I average at least 2-3 apples per day. I also look for mangoes, tangerines, oranges and berries. And when local watermelon is in season, I will drive across the island to buy them! I spend *at least* 1/2 of my food budget on produce.
