<p>My ratings are a cross between Forbes and the Princeton Review.</p>
<p>^^Why is pear at the top and bananas at the bottom? I was thinking the bottom be like tomato or dried fruits?</p>
<p>^ Yeah prunes are definitely worse than bananas or pears</p>
<p>Grapefruit and mangoes should be pretty high up there.</p>
<p>If you tried an Asian pear you might have a different opinion. I can’t stand regular pears but I actually prefer the Asian varieties over even apples now. A thin skin and excellent, juicy crunch. Round (not classic “pear”) shaped. I’d never before thought I could use the word “crunch” as a pear descriptor. Until now.</p>
<p>Actually, I feel like most grapefruits are kind of bitter, so I just dab it in some splenda or sugar. I do that with a lot of the bland fruits (like small, crimson strawberries), even though it’s totally cancelling out the benefits of the nutrients.</p>
<p>I don’t care what any of you say, DRAGON FRUIT = #1</p>
<p>Eating a dragon fruit literally sends each and every one of your tastebuds into an orgasm that could make an elephant fall to its knees.</p>
<p>You seriously brah? Pears are so JUICY and sweet. They’re also more tender than apples. Braces-friendly.</p>
<p>This might sound weird, but pear chunks actually taste good in salad, or in a chutney in a turkey burger (my sister once made the turkey burgers that oprah once recommended from donald trump’s restaurant. They were aMaZiNg)</p>
<p>^^^ I saw a dragon fruit once, and I was like “Is this real life?”</p>
<p>Also, whoever put avocados at the top, I agree with you 101%</p>
<p>Avocados are hardly even fruit. I suggest a list as follows:</p>
<ol>
<li>Peach</li>
<li>Watermelon</li>
<li>Mango</li>
<li>Kiwi</li>
<li>Strawberry</li>
<li>Red apples</li>
<li>Bananas</li>
<li>Lemons/Limes</li>
<li>Pears</li>
<li>Orange/clementine/tangerine </li>
<li>Raspberries</li>
<li>Blackberries</li>
<li>Green Apples</li>
<li>Blueberries</li>
<li>Cranberries
…</li>
<li>Avocados
…</li>
<li>Tomatoes
…</li>
<li>Pomegranate </li>
</ol>
<p>These ratings will now be accepted as the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. I left out dragon fruit as its availability per consumer is not high enough to merit it a place on my rankings.</p>
<p>Oh yeah… raw cranberries… mmmmmm.</p>
<p>I motion to disregard dfree’s rankings, as anyone who would place pomegranates last has clearly suffered some sort of extensive cranial trauma.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>They taste like a bitter mix of cranberries and seeds. Their awful taste outweighs their health benefits, which already have little value in my rankings. Motion declined.</p>
<p>I’m obsessed with fruit. I think strawberries and watermelon are too boring. My rankings:</p>
<p>1- pomergranate
2- champagne grapes
3- clementine/tangerine
4- raspberries
5- mangos
6- peaches
7- clementine/tangerine
8- bananas
9- pears
10- blue berries</p>
<p>Champagne grapes would be my #1 if they were ever in season. They’re only sold for like one week in a year where I live. Waaah. Pomergranate is amazing because I buy the already peeled(?) ones so I don’t have to go through the annoyance of getting the seeds out of that magnificent fruit.</p>
<p>Go take your worthless rankings somewhere else. You don’t even have mangos in the top 5, and you have mango in your name. What a disgrace.</p>
<p>Oops repeated clementine/tangerines. Input black berries.</p>
<p>I like kiwi but if I suck on it then it burns the taste buds on my younger and my younger starts to bleed (eek!) very acidic?</p>
<p>Mango is the name of my pet bird. And he is named mango because he is red, yellow, orange, and green like a mango. </p>
<p>My list is no more useless than yours.</p>
<p>I FORGOT POMEGRANATE! I need to get on this whole fruits thing. It’s been too long since I frequented a farmers’ market.</p>
<p>We need to come to a compromise, dfree. How about…</p>
