I have always loved Pears since I was a kid, but recently I’ve had a newfound adoration for Strawberries.

For fruit juices nothing beats the good ol’ apple juice :)

    Blackberries and raspberries! I still have fond memories of picking them walking the way to and from school

    The only fruit juice I like is orange. Can’t stand apple juice or cider. No idea why. I like apples, I just don’t like that much apple flavor in my mouth or something.

    Actual fruits… my favorites are probably raspberries with the caveat that I hate the seeds getting crushed and’s sticking in my teeth. Plums are pretty good if you get them at the perfect ripeness - soft and sweet but not so juicy you look like you just left a porn shoot after eating one.

      For the cider, it might be how sweet it is/tastes. You can try drinking it warm/hot or you can try turning it into Mulled Cider if you want to give cider another shot.

      I don’t chew raspberries, I’m a tongue against the roof of the mouth person, unless I want to spend way too much effort digging a seed out of a tooth.

    Sour cherries are my favorite fruit by far. They are good plain or in so many things, pies, cobblers, mixed into yogurt. Mulberries are another favorite. Those I have only had plain by the handful.

    Apples, but they have the most variance unfortunately. The height of apples is amazing, but when you get a bad one it’s utterly terrible

      I rate apples on a a scale of “too much apple” to “needs more apple”. I also think most apples in grocery stores are just too big.

      Honeycrisp apples have become my new favorite over the years. Even a mid honeycrisp apple beats the pants off every red delicious or washington I’ve ever had. Fuji is a close second.

    Blackberries and huckleberries, which makes living in the Pacific Northwest perfect for me. I’m sure I would hate dealing with the invasive blackberry that is found everywhere here if I didn’t enjoy the fruit.

    Pawpaws! If you get them just right, they’re like eating a banana-mango custard.

        I have seen naleśniki with strawberry jam or cream mixed with fresh fruit.

          That sounds so good. I wish I could get these things where I live. Might need to learn to make crepes and crepe-like objects.

    I’m not a big pear fan. Partly the general flavour, but also they always feel gritty to me. But that might depend on variety.

    I really like raspberries. There aren’t many others I’d consider a favourite but I like plenty of others.

    Weirdly, not a big fan of melons or most other tropical fruit.
