Favorite Fruit?

[Scott]

There has been some great fruit out there this season. Many fruits now peaking. Which is your favorite?

I've been eating lots of Honey Dew and Watermelon this week. A few weeks ago Strawberries and Blueberries were awesome.

[IzzyDedjet]

That's not fair.  I can't pick just one.
Can I pick a fruit salad?

[Scott]

What are those little red berries IzzyDedjet? Not the raspberries, but the little red ones.

[HappyGilmore]

Plums.

I love plums

Those should be currants.

[Scott]

A good juice sweet plum is hard to beat.

Never even heard of currants. How are they? Good?

[Andrew]

Currants are a little sour.  I don't think that you would want to eat a plain handful of them, but they go good in fruit salads or with yogurt.  That is per my tastes.  I tend to like the sweet and sour mix or a sweet and salty mix.  The main problem I run into is that I never seem to see them for sale in a regular grocery store.

I like my trail mix, like I like my women:  sweet and salty!

I'll have to try a whole bunch of them for myself. The Currants that is. 

[IzzyDedjet]

thanks for picking up my slack, there Andrew.  I was clueless what they were and was about to suggest Nightshade berries.

[raj]

Mmmmmm, nightshade berries, they're toxically delicious.

I like most all fruit, but apples are my mainstay.

[Scott]

There's another fruit that I've never heard of. Nightshade Berries? How are they sweet?

[IzzyDedjet]

Scott.  Nightshade is a poisonous plant. 
It was my attempt at humor.  Sorry.   

[Scott]

Phew..........glad I didn't add them to the poll or my salad.

Maybe I should have run right out and picked a batch for myself. Still could I suppose.

[Mr. DS]

Alright, I went with grapes although I'm sure I'll change my mind about that. 

I have two blueberry bushes and quite a few rasberry bushes which I pick frequently.  My wife's grandfather has a strawberry farm so I'm lucky in that sense.  They also have a few peach trees there which I mentioned in another thread. 

I pretty much enjoy just about any fruit minus only a few.
