Perfectly ripe cherries, pitted and frozen

Mangoes aren't bad, IMHO, but if I had to give up a fruit permanently, I don't think that it'd be that near the bottom of my list. I'd rather keep standbys that are common in US grocery stores like like apples, oranges, pears, and kiwis.

Dragonfruit and pears.
This isn't an opinion, it's objective truth.

I love mango especially because it can be frozen & it doesn't breakdown the texture nor the flavour. It one of the only frozen fruits I can get from grocery store that I can eat out of the package (vs. most frozen fruit is only good for smoothies etc IMO). My favorite is plums, but only from my granma's tree. Nothing sold in stores would ever be labeled "plum" if it were up to me. I also like pineapple alot. Apples, oranges, peaches, while sometimes store bought you might get a good one once in a while, homegrown (or local....basically fresh) fruit has no equal. But i practically live off fruit except during the 3 winter months.

Garcinia fruit (mangosteens and such, no relation to mangoes).

every other one and none of them. fruits are distincitive. I love apples, grapes, oranges, kiwi, watermelon, etc etc

Refrigerate your mangos before eating! So much nicer than a lukewarm mango.

Kiwi. I love kiwi so much, I eat the fuzzy skin too!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Love kiwis but I get some kind of allergic reaction whenever I eat them.

Pakistani mangoes

Especially if they are shipped in a crate that has been inconspicuously loaded onto an airplane.
