Favorite fruit available to you in your area and favorite fruit of all time.

Just one?

Raspberries, white nectarines, golden kiwi, golden raspberries, and blackberries.

And bacon.  Bacon transcends food groups.   ;D

I can't choose just one, so I will go with Purplesaurus Rex

My ideal fruit salad would be berries (raspberry, blueberry, blackberry, strawberry etc.), watermelon, mangoes, pineapple, banana and kiwi.

Props to the Honeycrisp apple.  Incredibly sweet and crunchy.

Love a good cobbler in summer.  Can't wait for that.

Man I love you guys, you are my favorite fruits of all......haha get it! I made fun of you!

Recently I met this hippie gentleman who had these things that were like kiwis but they weren't...They were from Hawaii and was shaped like a small tumor. Any idea on what it was?

Hrm, I thankfully don't know what a small tumor looks like. Spending time in Taiwan, I've eaten a ton of fruit from the south pacific. Here are some I can think of off the top of my head. If I were to guess, I would say passion fruit.

some others:
Lychee
Custard Apple
Longan
Bell Fruit

Honeycrisp apples ruined ALL other apples for me!

Pomegranate is my favorite fruit of all time, I'd think.  They are a chore to each, but oh so delicious if you love tart.  Minneola tangelos are another fruit I have to have.  Those things are just so damn juicy and a bit sour.

Kiwi, pineapple, banana, grapefruit, moro (blood) orange, nectarine, strawberry, blackberry, raspberry, watermelon, and a bit of canteloupe are also on my list.

I started eating fruit as part of my main lunch at work about 7 years ago.  I've never stopped.  (I also eat a snack pack pudding as well!  Every day for the last 10 or so years at work.  I never get tired of that pudding.)

Sorry, none of those things were it. Odly enough though the guy had Longan fruit with him too. Forgot about that until I googled it.

What I eat was green, and he had a ton of them. They tasted like a kiwi, erhm sort of.

Guava?

No not guava. Kind of looks like it though. White insides and soft, very soft.

Also, honeydew is a bit too big of a fruit. And it is super delicious! I have had some scrumptious ones before.

I am in California so we have a ton of ripe fruit here (especially in SF)

I wasn't suggesting that it was the one you were looking for.  I was throwing it out for discussion albeit it in a pretty concise way.

Cool that you have had ripe honeydew.  First person that I have ever heard say that.

You son of a monkey's uncle!  I was gonna post that one!

I would post my favorite fruit, but the politically correct climate of today prevents me from doing so.  ;)

Cantaloupe, Peaches, Blackberries, Pineapple, Strawberries... are my top favs.  But I love pretty much any sweet fruit.

 I also agree that its difficult to get a good ripe Honeydew where I live.  Ive had some that were awesome, but most
were terrible.  I wonder if its the GMO crud, where they forgot to carry over the sugar gene, like what they
did with Tomatoes.  Ugg.

 I will say, that you can get your hands on Honeydew bubbletea mix... and that stuff is pretty awesome.

 In Taiwan, they also had a Honeydew soda, that I couldnt stop drinking.  It was just called "Mellon", in a plutonium green
bottle, with some kind of  boy-band  pictures on the label.   It was like drinking the most perfectly ripe Honeydew, with its
flavor intensified nearly 2x, and a nice fizz to boot.   Its probably the most Yummy thing Ive ever drank.

 Ive tried other Mellon soda, I think it was Larue?  but it didnt even come close.  It also is sold in too small a quantity.

Anyone who doesn't think an orange is the tastiest fruit on the planet is either misguided, or pretentious.

I don't remember that one specifically. Is that one of those fizzy drinks with the marble in it? Those things were addictive. I had a ton of wintermelon juice, but that stufff was always made fresh.
