Apples. Most varieties but especially Gala.
I eat at least one a day.

A humble banana 🍌

A nice banana or a large orange. I also enjoy cherries and nectarines, but the latter has to be just right (a little bit firm and actually not too juicy).
Strawberries are completely overrated, in my view.

But they’re so boring! 😁

Anyone else's mouth watering at this thread?

No, not at all. A thread about puddings/cake, on the other hand …
I would go so far as to say that I’d pick the fruit off a dessert 😳

I’m surprised at the mentions of dragonfruit. I bought one at a whole food shop a while back and it tasted of … nothing. I had high hopes because of the price and the beauty of it!

Charentais melon, followed by mango, raspberries and white peaches.

AgnesX · 06/08/2025 18:14

Too many to mention... summer raspberries, mango, pineapple, orange, watermelon.

Yum 😋

Each to their own! I find oranges boring, unless they are proper 🍊 tangerines.

Spidey66 · 06/08/2025 18:56

Mango

OwlsR · 06/08/2025 18:58

In May Indian and Pakistani mangoes.
June British strawberries
then russet apples

ZaZathecat · 06/08/2025 18:59

I hope someone is keeping a tally!
Plums from my garden

Coffeeishot · 06/08/2025 19:01

Melon any kind, and oranges and tangerines etc

autienotnaughty · 06/08/2025 19:06

Honey dew melon

questionthethought · 06/08/2025 19:07

Strawberries are unreal but as a kid and even now I am still weirded out by the pips!

2nd fave has got to be really good grapes, M&S titti fruity and candy cotton ones are amazing

WinterRoad · 06/08/2025 19:09

Raspberries, cherries and mangoes

TheCoralEagle · 06/08/2025 19:13

Nectarines.

Letshavetea1 · 06/08/2025 19:15

Cherries from Kent

Lifelover16 · 06/08/2025 19:16

Cherries.
we live in an area renowned for cherries, only available in season and they are glorious

Enko · 06/08/2025 19:17

I find that too hard a question. I love fruit.

Likely blueberries or watermelon or gooseberries (warm from the sun only)

Dd3 said mango
Dd2 cantaloupe

NegroniMacaroni · 06/08/2025 19:28

Beautifully ripe juicy peach. Tastes of summer. The tastes lives only in my memory now as I developed an allergy to stone fruits : (((

Totally! The most disappointing food ever.

AuldTheDeepMinded · 06/08/2025 19:48

Lychees
Black cherries
Grapes

OudAndRose · 06/08/2025 19:50

I love fruit. Fresh figs. Jazz apples. Big oranges. Russet apples. Strawberries. Blackberries. I can't choose!

Justmemyselfandi999 · 06/08/2025 19:59

Rhubarb, or loganberries 😋
