When life gives you peaches don’t argue just say yes.

Saw this family selling my favorite fruit couldn’t help myself for 10$ a basket hell I took like 3 baskets. A little girl maybe 5 or 6 was out here selling must admit she lured me in with the price 🤣 best 20 bucks I’ve ever spent on anything.

Cantaloupe? Should I cut it now or wait?

So I remember when I was a little kid my mom would buy cantaloupe and she would wait to cut it until you could smell the fruit. But I swear that after she would buy it from the store we only had to wait maybe 4 days or so. Right now I have a cantaloupe in my kitchen that I bought maybe a week ago and I still can't smell it at all. Since I've already had it for a week if I wait any longer is it going to be nasty? Or has it still not ripened and I still need to wait for me to be able to smell it?

This is my 5th pink pineapple this year and probably the sweetest one. Every single one has been SO sweet! I like the pink ones because they seem to have less acid and it's easier on my stomach. The reason I wanted to post this one is because it was trying really hard to be yellow! I think they're d

Yes I cut them that strange way because I eat a round slice as a snack whenever and cover the top with seran wrap 😛

What variety of pear is this?

Hello! Can anyone identify the variety of pear? The tree is in Alvin, TX. The skin is tough, similar to a potato. The flesh is crisp like apple. The taste is sour at first and sweetens when fully ripe.

Does anyone else feel pain after eating granadilla?

I discovered sweet passionfruit a few months and love the taste and it's fibre content.

However yesterday I noticed after eating it my esophageal sphincter was in a lot of pain and I felt nauseous. I figured I just didn't chew the seeds enough and they caused some damage so today I tried again with a lot more chewing, but still the same thing.

I've heard passionfruit allergy is a thing but none of the symptoms seem normal for allergies. I have GERD so maybe the acidity is actually the problem? But I haven't had this issue until now so it's weird

Just curious if anyone else has come across this. TIA!

First time trying mamey sapote!

The fancy grocery store near me (central IL) always has these, but this time there were some softer ones and I decided it was worth the $5. Definitely see the sweet potato/cantaloupe flavor comparison.

Do People in the UK Like Asian Fruits?

Hi fellow UK people my girlfriend is doing a dissertation on whether people who live in the UK would buy Asian fruits or not - things like Lychees, Dragonfruit, Starfruit, Asian pears.

I'm Asian myself and grew up in the UK and even I don't eat that much Asian fruit. I remember my mum would use to buy them from Asian supermarkets sometimes, but ever since moving out I don't think I've ever bought any.

I was wondering if people in the UK actually buy or eat them and if you don't how come? For me it's usually because I don't see them at my local Tescos and I'm happy enough muncing on conference pears or bananas.

Here's her survey if any of you are willing to help out 😆

Passionate about this combo

No. Seriously. The peaches needed to be eaten, the grapes needed to go, I just so happened to have a couple passionfruit. This is probably my favorite combination so far. Not overpowering. I can’t believe I just ate that 🤣🤤🍑🍇

Ice Apple - The ultimate summer delicasy; translucent, juicy, and ice-cold

Ice apple is a translucent, jelly-like fruit that grows on the palmyra palm (Borassus flabellifer) tree during the hot summer months. This nutrient-rich fruit consists of pale, watery pods hidden inside a tough outer shell. When peeled, it offers a remarkably refreshing, subtle sweetness with a flavor profile highly reminiscent of tender coconut water and mild litchi. Biting into its smooth, gelatinous flesh releases a cool burst of hydrating juice that feels instantly soothing on the palate, making it a beloved natural electrolyte source for beating the summer heat.
