Howdy, friends! I think it's hard to find a person that has never eaten any of FRUITS.
It seems like all people like some kind of fruits. My favorite ones are oranges and bananas. I think it's because there are none of them growing in my country, so these are kind of exotic fruits for me. + they taste really good too.
So, what is your favorite FRUIT? And why do you like it?

My friend! I live in Bangladesh which is the perfect growing place for my favourite fruit 'Mango'. Yes I love mango than other fruits. Mango is called 'the king of fruits' for its variant flavours and types. During summertime the air get scented with the flavour of mango. They are so savoury. If I pass any year without eating mango, I feel like missing a great pleasure of my life. Three cheers to mango. Long live mango.

Damn, you just made my mouth water. I think that it's wonderful to have mango trees by your side, so you can get them anytime you want (of course during the mango season). Unfortunately I don't have any, it's too cold in our country, but I think you're a really lucky person! Thanks for answering!:)

I have lots of favourite fruits as we are quite fruity in our home, but I will just choose a few. The fruit that I have the most is banana. It is also the most commonly eaten fruit in the world. We buy them by the box from the markets and use them for smoothies as well as eating by themselves.
Another favourite fruit is the 'King Of Fruits' Durian! We do not eat this quite so often as it is expensive and not so commonly available here in my climate. It does not grow here!
Mango is another favourite and we are fortunate enough to have two trees full of them at the moment. They are really cheap at the shops at the moment too as we are experiencing the best mango season for 40 years here right now!
Apples, pineapples, and berries such as blueberries and raspberries are high on the list too!

Wow, you're so lucky to have mango trees by your side! It's good to hear, that mango is growing well that season, congratulations from me! I also like the fruits you mentioned in the end of comment, berries are very tasty and versatile too. And of course I like bananas, but haven't tried durian yet. Thanks for answering!:)

Durian is very unique in that it has a very strong sulphur smell and can turn people away from it. I like it though!

Unfortunately these tropical fruits really don't grow in my country :(
I come from Estonia, it is situated in North-Eastern Europe. There is a temperate climate zone, so you can find apples, pears and a variety of berries in our country. I even grow some of them in my garden.
I think that it's true, that apples can make one slim. I've heard so much about it, so it has to be true! Thanks for responding!:)

My favourite fruit is Mango. I love it and I am a slave to it's taste. You can eat it as it is, make a juice out of it, make a sweet out of it. Whatever you do from out of that fruit, the item will be very tasty.

I know, that biologically tomato is described as fruit, but I think it's allowed to call it a vegetable too, both options are right for me :)
Anyway, I like tomatoes so much too, I also do like bananas. Thanks for responding!:)

Apple is my favorite fruit.I don't know why.In our place the climate is too hot.We don't get the apples all the time.It is only in winter we get apples.So I have wait till winter to eat apples.Even those fruits are costly but I buy them. Middle class community occasionally eat apples as they are costly.Its a dream to poor man to have an apple in our place.

I think you would be willing to visit our country in late summer or early autumn, because it's the time when we get to harvest our apples. There are usually so many of them, this autumn there was so good harvest, that many people were just giving apples away to everyone. Even in cities there were boxes with apples standing by the doors of the houses, everyone could have one for himself/herself. I like apples too, but I am so used to them, so I like tropical fruits a little bit more. Thank you for your answer!:)

HI Biomechanoid,
Of course your are rite is very difficult to find a person who never eats any fruits.
I like oranges, apple and Banana. In India banana is available in all the seasons and we have daily after our lunch and dinner, Apples are very good for health if we have daily.
have a great day.

You're so lucky to have bananas by your side 24/7! We don't have any of the tropical fruits in our country. You can find apples and pears in our country, lots of different berries too. Still, they aren't available throughout the year, we harvest them in the late summer/early autumn. Thanks for responding, take care!:)

Picking a favorite fruit is a hard choice because there are so mant tastey fruits out there like watermellons, bannannas, apples, grapes, oranges, cantolope, peaches, pears. My favorite would have to be a cantolope sweetness of sweetness with the juice pouring out so fast as you take a bite into it effortlessly. After you cut it open.

I agree, there are so many great fruits growing around the world! Unfortunately I haven't tasted cantaloupe yet, but I hope I'll have a chance to do it in the future! Thanks for sharing!:)

Hei, Jaiho and thanks for responding! I like mango too, but I've never tried a jackfruit. Wish I could get to taste it someday.

My favourite are red grapes. They are absolutely delicious. A close second is either bananas because they are easy and clean to eat, and oranges. I like any fruit that has lots of juice and is full of flavour, but I cannot be dealing with messy fruits that leave behind a sticky slobber

I like all the fruits you mentioned too! They are all easy to eat, because you don't even need a knife to open them (if you're eating grapes, you don't even need to open them). They are all easy to eat and very delicious too. Thank you for answering!:)

It's damn cool that you have such opportunity to grow these incredible fruits in your garden! I live in a temperate climate zone, so there is too cold to grow these tropical fruits. So there are pears, cherries, strawberries and raspberries growing in my garden. I can say fruits taste especially good when you grow them in your own garden without using any chemicals and preservatives. Thanks for answering!:)

Bananas are good, I agree. You can make very different things using them - add them into your fruit salad or make banana shake! Thanks for sharing!;)

i would say papaya!
they are sweet and not hard to digest and for people with constipation problems it helps a lot!
but of course do not over eat it!selection of fruits must be in variables as excess of one certain food is always not suggested!

I think I haven't a chance to taste papaya yet, but I've heard about this fruit. It's supposed to be a good one. And you're right, fruits are good, but they shouldn't be persons only food. Menu must be balanced! Thanks for sharing!:)
