i normally eat a pre-cut (although freshly cut) box of fruits from the shop around the corner. it's 300g of apple, pineapple, grapes and melon...oh, and strawberries...i eat one of these almost every day...

depends whether we have any. i don't actively go hunting for fruit, but if there's a banana at hand, i'll eat it.

0. I dislike fruit. I also don't like the way it comes out the other end. I like green apples but I can never finish one. I like bananas but they go bad too fast. I <i>love</I> kiwi but it's such a pain in the ass to get the skin off.

I drink a fair amount of fruit juice, if I can afford it.

1-4

usually some berries (blue, rasp, black, or straw) with breakfast and an apple for an afternoon snack. i need to eat more. it seems hard to fit more in unless i am going to the farmer's market and finding tons of beautiful, delicious stuff.

you eat them frozen like an icecream/popcicle substitute?

i need to try that. i recently switched to frozen blueberries because i can get so much more for the same price.

i dont think that there is a ulterior motive for eating them frozen - that is just how i buy them and i am too lazy to thaw them out. i get a 7 or 8 lb bag for $7

those are the cheapest blueberries i've ever heard of. i'm going to try some frozen ones today, but i bet i'm going to stick with thawed.

Oh and green apples.

honeycrisp seem kinda hard to come by, but when i posted that i did a web search and found that they store for up to 8 months but are a late mid-season apple. just check later on and you'll find them.

i wonder if you guys have ever heard of vermont gold apples. they're amazing. I've had them right at the orchard before. they're hard to come by because they can't really be shipped around. their skin breaks real easily.

Sorry to take you so seriously, but these are premium Dole frozen blueberries, picked at the height of the growing season and immediately frozen (I read that on the bag while I was eating them yesterday). The berries were about three times as big as the frozen ones I got at Trader Joe's, but they were basically flavorless so I thawed them and now they taste good. What brand are yours? Do you get them at Costco or Sam's Club?

i've taken to having a bowl of cereal and tossies various berries and/or banana into it for breakfast everyday. it's good and a good way to work more fruit into my diet.

i hope to lose 50 lbs. by the end of the year

At least two bananas. Usually an apple.

I always eat fresh strawberry's from our garden now - they're so fantastic.

I'll go through grape phases about every other month.

I love fruit though.

For my birthday I made a banana cognac chocolate spodi. I think I was one of the only people that liked it :o Banana + cognac = orgasm.

My friends also made a rum spodi with everything from starfruit to strawberries to pineapple to cherries. Was awesome.
