Plums, especially when they're so ripe they almost get an alcoholic taste.

Cantaloupe

mango probably but i cant eat it or i get dhiarrea and heart burns
>>7580747
If you like plums you will love pluots. Not the ones ,marketed in stores that are called dinosaur eggs. But a properly tree ripened pluot tastes like a high quality plum.
>>7578907
That's a vegetable you dunce
Anyone else loves medlars? Shame they're only avaiable one month a year where I live
>>7578906
Bananas, and mangoes. Peaches too.
Prickly pear/Opuntia or whatever it's called in english, here we call it frangosyka (Frank figs).
I don't imagine it's regularly consumed in many countries but it's a treat over here even if you can't eat many of them for health reasons.
>>7578906
MANGO!!
I LOVE MANGO
why does dragonfruit taste like nothing? did i just buy one off-season?
>>7581120
There are the ones that are white and others are purple inside. The White ones are pretty bland I don't know about the others.
>>7581120
Most I've had are pretty bland, but they definitely have a distinct flavor to them.
Like avocados, if they were shipped too far and not ripened properly they can taste like nothing, whereas a good one can be delicious.
>>7581120
if you buy them fresh off the market in sea then yeah, they do taste like something, but compared to the mangoes they have over there or other exotics like durian or mangosteen they taste real fucking bland.
they're nice in other contexts, for example the thai make real nice shakes out of them with finely crushed ice, syrup, lime juice and a whole dragonfruit in a food processor.

We call them "Indian figs" in Italy. Also, we call cavies "Indian pigs."

>nobody's said pineapple
If it wasn't for this shit wearing away your gums if you eat too much of it, I'd have pineapple all the time.
Raw green mangos with muoi ot .
I'll go fucking ham on them if I have them.
>>7581333
I was between saying pineapple and the one I said, close call. I mean hell, I consume more raw pineapple than any other raw fruit.
Note that if you put that shit on your pizza you deserve to burn in hell tho.
>>7581096
Tunas in mexico. We have them on our national flag. Red or green?
>>7581349
YES, I love raw pineapple but absolutely hate it on pizza. Everyone says jalap and pineapple are a good pizza combo but no thanks
>>7578906
This. 100%.
Once bought a box of mangoes and just went through them with just my hands and mouth. It was one of the greatest feelings of my life.
>>7581354
We have the red ones, you need heavy gloves and pliers or other tools to clean them, or at least that's how most people do it. My grandma is a master at cleaning them.
A friend of mine ate the better part of a bucket of them and had go to the hospital, I ate the other part of said bucket and couldn't function for a couple of days. Still worth it.
>>7578906
You are you homo
>>7581333
its a matter of habit. my mouth used to burn after some 3 slices and now i can down 2 whole pinapples straight, usually i do just one, and feel nothing but its heavenly sugar bite after bite. it is just amazing.
White flesh peaches and rainier cherries. My tastebuds are just gasping for summer.
>>7581096
Give me my money.
It tastes like a mixture of peaches and pineapple with the texture of the latter.
Mangosteens are my second favourite.
>>7581349
pineapple belongs on pizza

You belong in the trash along with your taste.
Tangerine, followed by Peach, But I love almost every fruit, except Cantaloupe and Pinnaple
>>7581711
What in the shit are you talking about? Have you ever even had waraka? It tastes like neither peaches nor pineapples. Its texture is not anywhere near as fibrous as pineapple, either.
The taste of ripe waraka seed pods (the yellow parts around the seeds inside the latex-making flesh) is like a cross between mango, sweet banana and canteloupe with a smooth texture, like rehydrated-from-dry shiitake mushrooms. The flesh of ripe waraka is inedible, but the seeds are boiled and roasted. The taste is blandish/sweetish.
The taste and texture of unripe waraka (polos) is mushroom-y, though some say meaty.
Source: grew up eating the things and actually have some in the house right now because I love them.
>>7581782
I googled jackfruit and that's the first result because I don't know what the whole fruit looks like. I've only ever eaten it cut up into little cubes when I visited thailand once.
>>7581460
also white nectarines. they make you wonder why yellow nectarines are even allowed to still exist
>tfw you are prepared for them to be great and theyre fibery
>>7581791
>cut up into little cubes to eat
That's impossible unless it was unripe, which you wouldn't be eating uncooked nor would anyone describe its taste even remotely fruity (as I said, it's kind of like mushroom). Cutting up ripe waraka would be like cutting up a pomegranate into little cubes to eat. Know how the white part of pomegranate isn't edible, but all the seed pods (and the seeds) are? Same with waraka. You remove the outer parts and the white inner parts and scoop out all the seed pods.
The seed pods are either served as they are or further cleaned up. If served just like that, you pop the seeds out of the pods and eat the pods themselves. If they're served already cleaned, the seeds are popped out and you're left with this little sack of deliciousness.
So I ask: are you sure that's what you ate? Because what you're describing couldn't possibly be waraka/jackfruit at all.
>>7581889
It had the texture of pineapple, was bright yellow, but tasted more like peaches and not pineapple. It was very sweet. Maybe it wasn't jackfruit then.
the difference between this and a mainland pineapple is like the difference between a mainland pineapple and a canned one

Either sudukaw or yellow bittara, maybe? I don't know what they would be called in Thai. Give me a sec to find pictures or the name in English. I'm thinking it's probably bittara, though. That tastes kinda like peaches. While I don't think it has it, I wouldn't argue with someone who says it has a pineapple-like flavour. Also, it's yellow and can be cut into cubes to eat. The only problem I have with it is the texture, which is like a custard-y threeway point between apple, banana and kiwi and not fibrous like pineapple. Gimme a sec to find a picture for you.
>>7581972
>>7581898
It's called eggfruit in English. Makes sense, considering that bittara also means egg. Look up eggfruit pictures and compare if that kinda looks like it might be what you had.
Also, look at your wakara picture in >>7581711
See the yellow things in the bottom right, just below the fruit itself? Those are the seed pods. They can be removed just like ones from a pomegranate can.
I'm not sure exactly what it is but I abhor every fruit except apples. I can eat anything else I'll give it a try no matter what it is, but for some reason the texture of any fruit I've tried makes me gag. And the thing is I like the taste.
How do I enjoy fruit? I feel like I'm missing out but I honestly puked last time I had a grape.
Send help.
>>7581994
>Canistel flesh is sweet, with a texture often compared to that of a hard-boiled egg yolk
It definitely didn't have that texture.
Ah well. I dunno what fruit I had then, but at least now I know it wasn't jackfruit/waraka.

>look it up
Huh, looks like a hedge apple, I wonder if they're-

Well how about that, you learn something new every day. Hedge apples are pretty much inedible though, but I do like using figs in cooking.

Where do you live? I live in North Carolina, and I've been trying to find patches around the local parks so I can forage for them during the late Summer. I haven't been able to find any so far though.
Nectarines > everything.

Used to have this Mexican girlfriend who would put some kind of chili powder on her watermelon.
I never thought it would have worked, but man it was really good.
>>7581910
I thought Hawaii didn't grow pineapples anymore.
Durians are nice if it's not such a pain in the butt to open it apart.
>>7583065
I know on Oahu they don't, but I don't know about the other islands. They've replaced all the pineapple plantations with coffee on Oahu.
>>7583129
I'm pretty sure it's been almost much exclusively Maui for a long time now, and I think it's become much cheaper for the mainland to import them from S. America. Canned pineapple is all SEA these days.
>>7582925
Richmond, I find them on the trails that go along the James River. You gotta look near a water source, and they're kinda hard to spot.
Peaches, millions of peaches.
>>7583107
Honestly just use a hatchet and some wooden staves like you're splitting a log, it works just fine.
Alternately take a reciprocating saw with a clean blade to the thing. Not like any metallic taste will be left behind.
oooh, banana

If you could be bothered to read past the first sentence you would see that there are differences between the culinary and botanical definition of fruits.

you posted it OP, theres nothing better than scoring a mangos insides and then popping it out like an ice cube tray and eating that nectary flesh
>>7580535
>>7580530
also lychee and rambutan are garbage, so is dragonfruit (shit tastes like water), cherimoyas are a hassle and also taste like ass and so do Kiwano melon
>>7581096
these were surprisingly tasty
You're asking me to pick ONE favorite?!
ARE YOU MAD?!!

I love mangoes! But only the waxy ones; there's nothing more disappointing than getting a fibrous one.
Is there any way to tell them apart from the outside (before wasting the money buying it)?
Pears
>>7582966
spicbro here, i grew up in san antonio and yes, the locals from the south side would put chili powder on fucking everything.
>>7583464
The nectarine is just the better version of the peach.
grapes all the way.
>>7585327
Nectarines are to peaches as no-pulp cartons of orange juice are to fresh squeezed.
They basically take out everything that makes them great and serve them as a sanitized version to plebs.
Lemons.
>>7578906
tomato. tiny cold ones, big warm ones with salt and pepper
>>7581396
This is probably super retarded but no amount of searching has told me, why exactly can't you eat too many? Is there something in the fruit that fucks you up?

GRAPES! I fucking love them. Freezing them makes them even better.

pineapple

Blueberries, pineapples (on and off pizza), strawberries, well-ripened bananas, [spoiler]rhubarb[/spoiler]

It's just very very hard to digest prickly pear, meaning that eating even a couple will leave your bowel backed up and full of gases causing pain and massive shits. If you eat too many your bowels basically shut down and you need medical help.
Also to note that improperly cleaned prickly pear can literally kill you given that the little thorns are slightly poisonous so they mess you up once eaten.
>>7585745
Green bananas are best bananas tho.

I am really torn. I love basically every fruit. and a nice variety/rotation is a great pleasure to me. But Its hard to beat the kiwi.
>>7578906
Apples. Not even kidding. Not that red delicious shit; but good apples. Honeycrisp, Pink Lady, and glorious, glorious Ambrosia. I look forward to September and October every year because it means the apples in the local orchards are available again and I can get amazing ones for cheap. Candy Apples, Apple Pie, Apple Cider; sign me the fuck up.

Pineapple is probably the single best tasting fruit IMO. Whenever I eat it I feel like I'm eating some nectar of the gods. Also, I think its the coolest looking fruit, if that means anything, aside from maybe dragon fruit.
I love almost anything lime flavored. Its just such a great flavor.
>>7578906
You.
Guava, unripe.
>That crisp texture
>That delicious flavour
>The great mixture of bitterness and sweetness
Fuck I'm drooling.
>>7586690
I like kiwi as well and share your love of fruits but I feel like I can't binge on kiwi, like no matter how ripe they are I can't eat more than a couple or the taste/mood will spoil.
Don't have this problem with any other fruit I can think of.
