Maybe I will just grab one and bit into it at the store.

Honestly, they're delicious. You want them to be soft though, otherwise they taste like sawdust.

>>7062235
>Maybe I will just grab one and bit into it at the store
Make sure it's very ripe, they are full of tannins and can be like eating a cotton ball if under ripe. It's actually kind of interesting, but not pleasant.

There is a variety that doesn't do that to your mouth regardless of ripeness but I don't remember what it's called.

star fruit. oh so tasty.

Skin like an apple but not easier to chew and swallow, it doesnt build up in your mouth like paper. It's skin is soft and sweet. The middle flesh is delicious like a pear but more exotic. There is no core or seeds to dig out, just rip that green stuff from the top and eat it all.

Honestly it's delicious.

Usually the very flat ones (like Fuyu) are edible unripe and aren't high in tannins. The large ones (like Hachiya) are the opposite.

Honestly not trying to sound clever but pumpkins (a berry) are by far my favourite fruit. Followed by blueberries, ripe bananas, then maybe orange.

>>7062357
>there are no seeds
I haven't had one for quite a while but are you sure there's no seed in them? I seem to remember there were some that're shaped like pumpkin seeds

i was blown away the first time i had fresh blueberries. they were crack to me, i couldn't put them down.

before then, i only had ones that were either frozen or baked into some dessert. i didn't really like either.

but fresh, they're an entirely different thing.

>>7062235
No idea if you're still around anon, but almost any grocery store will let you sample out any fruit they have. Just ask. You'd look like an asshole if you bit into it right then and there.

Pears are clearly the best

Fuck forgot the image.

Anyway pears are the best because of the subtle sweet flavor, its not overpowering. The texture is also perfect when ripe, nice and soft but still has a subtle crunch, its not like an apple which has a shit-tier texture, and its not like an orange where it feels like you're just biting into juice.

Pears are the ultimate fruit. Even aesthetically they have a pleasing, subtle appearance that doesn't call attention to itself

>>7062774
>they have a pleasing, subtle appearance that doesn't call attention to itself

What?

>>7062264

not that those are tomatoes, but

In everyday language, a berry is a small, pulpy and often edible fruit. Berries are usually juicy, rounded, brightly colored, sweet or sour, and do not have a stone or pit, although many pips or seeds may be present.[1] Common examples are strawberries, raspberries, blueberries; and red- and blackcurrants.[2] In Britain soft fruit is a horticultural term for such fruits.[3][4][5]
The scientific usage of the term berry differs from common usage. In scientific terminology, a berry is a fruit produced from the ovary of a single flower in which the outer layer of the ovary wall develops into an edible fleshy portion (botanically the pericarp). The definition includes many fruits that are not commonly known as berries, such as grapes, tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants (aubergines) and bananas. Fruits excluded by the botanical definition include strawberries and raspberries. A plant bearing berries is said to be bacciferous or baccate.

Custard apple. The greatest fruit nobody seems to know about. They taste like a mix of banana, mango, and pineapple with a creamy pudding like texture. We have a native variety (paw-paw) that grows wild all through out the eastern United States.

My neighbor has some growing on his property that he refuses to touch cause he thinks they're poisonous. His loss.

I love kiwi.

I recently started making strawberry kiwi popsicles. Strawberries are one of my favorite fruits, but I quickly found that if you blend them up and make a popsicle with nothing additional, it is lacking in flavor. Too watery, pretty bland. Granted, these are large U.S. strawberries and that is usually the way of it, unlike wild little strawberries on the mountainside. So it needed something more. The kiwi chunks were a perfect pairing.

>>7062268
don't eat the skins! that's where the numbing bitterness lives.

>>7067254
I somewhat recently first tried Kiwi, it was amazing. For sure one of the best fruits out there, feel like i've been missing out. They're a huge pain to peel though.

>>7064400
They recently started selling what you refer to as fuyu persimmoms at my local ethnic grocers under the name Sharon fruit. They are indeed god tier, but the variability in sweetness is huge when bought from a shop.

My understanding is that you are supposed to leave the hachiya persimmom on the tree until it is mushy, then scoop out the flesh. Sharon fruit were indeed selectively bred to be sweet and good to eat when firm. I think it was done so that the shops could sell them and not have them rot in transport

Do sharon fruit continue to improve like bananas or is the eating quality the same even if you leave them to go soft?

Also what should I be looking for in selecting custard apples? (Same shop has started selling these too)

Not capitalized. Just a family owned produce outlet. Many family-owned ones around here.

Shoprite is so overpriced. I go to the produce outlet and Aldi. Shoprite can eat shit. They charge as much for a single lemon as I could pay for a sack of lemons. AND their produce is terrible...never ripens. Always underripe. Just goes from hard/green/flavorless straight to rotten. No wonder burgerclaps don't like vegetables and fruit if their experience is this!

I'm the same guy who likes Produce Junction from earlier. I am a foreigner to the US. Are you as well?

SR isn't so bad. I buy a number of things there, but I've noticed that my two local ones seem to have better prices than other ones for some reason. For example, I recently got six zucchini for $1.25, 2lbs of mushrooms for $1.99, a huge pack of organic lettuce for $2 flat and two 28oz boxes of instant rice for $1.49 each.
I'd never used instant rice before, but you know what, I kinda like it now. It's convenient for quick, microwave dinners.

Most of my veg purchases are from a Chinese grocer. They pack up huge bags of produce for $1 each. Only once has anything actually been wrong with the produce I got there. It was a six pound bag of yard long beans. Half to two thirds had to be thrown away during the washing process, but that's fine because yard long beans are $3/lb and I wound up getting 2lbs for a buck, so s'all good.
The only problem is that I'm a cheapskate so I've gotta go with what they happen to have bagged up for quicksale.

no feijoa love?

but all time goat is apples. cheap as chips, in season all year round, keeps doctor away, makes cider my favourite alcohol, goes well with cheese, make apple sauce

toss up between feijoa and apple. feijoa are so expensive to buy and they are only perfect for about a day, so in the season I go round and steal everyones fruit from their trees I also got a couple in my garden

feijoa wine is also cash as fuck,but apples win due to being about 5 times cheaper, hardier, and last so much longer

>>7069101
Mangoes are pretty great. I just often forget about them. I like their sour bite. I prefer sour fruit in general. But I have a hard time relating to others in this sense because most fruit is sour to me. Especially fruit juices. Grape juice is extremely sour to me. Like drinking straight lemon or lime juice. But I love it for that fact. When I talk to someone about most fruit and fruit juices, I have found that those which are extremely sour to me are not sour to others.Cranberries, raspberries, strawberries, grapes - ALL very sour to me, regardless of the variety or color of them. Super tangy and sour. And I love it. I always preferred sour over sweet, so I guess it is a "blessing" in a way.
