Fuji apple, Korean pear and tangerine. I also like lime and lemon in food or drink. I don't like the fruits from US Midwest region - big but tasteless.

Pomegranate but it wasn't listed

Pome is a nice fruit. Yep! There is "Other" option above. Sorry if I did not make that clear.

Persimmon. Absolutely delicious.

I like persimmons, but I find their flavor so mild it almost disappears when I make bread or something out of them.

BERRIES! Of all kinds! Raspberries, Blackberries, Blueberries, Strawberries, you name it! The fruit of the North! Naturally grown berries from the wild or local farms are best. I also voted cherries, because REAL cherries are a whole lot better than artificial cherry flavoring. I don't think they'll ever get that flavor right. Also Kiwi, which I use to eat a lot when I was little, and my mom cut it up for me so I never had to fuss about that.

I've gone for grapes and pineapple on the list, but I've also chosen "other types", because I love oranges as well. Not too struck on apples, pears and bananas.

I eat a banana every day. It's easy to peel and doesn't require excessive washing. Maybe I'm addicted to potassium.

My new favorite is the Persimmon. Looks like a tomato but it don't taste like one.

I'm fond of pineapple myself.

Wait. On the graph the peach is considered easy? There's nothing easy about it. You have to shave the accursed thing to eat it. Then it tastes like it's been left out too long and has gone blinky. Then you need a shower yourself afterward.

Strawberries all the way for me! I like to make strawberry smoothies. But I don't get the name. They have nothing in common with straw.

Blueberries are pretty good too.

I have already voted on the matter of domesticated fruits, but around here, we also have some wild fruits that are quite delicious and that I always sought out as a kid (I grew up out in the boondocks, and it had its advantages).

Most famous perhaps is the marula (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marula), but you don't find them in this particular part of Gauteng because the winters are too cold. They are not really my favourites anyway, though the fruit is often used for jams and liqueurs and things.

On small farm where I grew up, there were some wild apricot bushes. The fruits superficially resemble apricots:

But they are really unlike any domestic fruits. They usually contain several large seeds with a thin layer of fibrous pulp around them, and you don't eat them so much as just suck them like sweets. When completely ripe they are delicious, with an exotic taste unlike anything else, though after a minute or two the taste suddenly goes very sour, and then you spit out the seed to create the next generation of shrubs. Also, you have to be quick in harvesting, or the baboons will get there before you.

Well, what do you know, there is actually a Wiki page:

I like pineapples, raspberries, strawberries, and apples. Wait... why is there no apples choice? How does one forget apples when making a fruit poll?!

 

[neoshredder]

Blueberries, strawberries, and grapes.

 

[MozartEarlySymphonies]

Raspberries, Bananas and Peaches.

 

[Vaneyes]

And the poll then said, "Yes, we have no banana today."

Then we'll have to get our own.

 

[schuberkovich]

Figs are criminally missing from this poll

[OldFashionedGirl]

Strawberries and peaches. I haven't taste berries with the exceptions of blackberries. They are too expensive and difficult to find in my country, so I still can't put them of favorite.

 

[lupinix]

kiwi, mandarin orange and stawberries

 

[Guest]

I'm particularly attached to fruit that comes in rows, usually twelve in number!

MOZZA!: Sweet and always in season...
