This might also help people find better versions of fruits they may not otherwise enjoy
del Monte gold pineapple. I bought it when they were out of my regular canned pineapple and now I can’t go back
We get these fresh here, and wow I agree, these are so sweet and flavorful. Even if they don’t look as ripe as the other ones they taste better, you can smell them when you approach the display.
What color pineapple were you eating before?
Lucy glo apples are one of the only apples I’ll eat. So good, they’re visually fun, and at least the stand I get them from they’re always very crisp
Pink Lady apples or bust
Golden Kiwis, not only can you eat the skin, it makes it delicious.
I eat the skin of regular kiwi’s. Am I not supposed to?
You can, I just find the skin on golden ones way more enjoyable
Ataulfo mangoes. At least in the northeast US, they are reliably delicious and ripen on the counter.
Cortland apples
Kanzi or Jazz apples.
Yellow kiwi blow green kiwi away. Little to no fuzz, so you can eat like an apple without peeling, and less tart. Also maybe a hint of banana to the taste?
Granny Smith apples. They have intense flavor and solid crispness, unlike other variety vaguely sweet mushy apples. Most importantly, they’re still good out of season.
Every year I go wild with variety for 1-2 month, then return to Grannies for the rest of the year
Absolutely. Love Granny Smith.
Lychee fruit is wonderful. Also pomelos, but they are hideously expensive now.
Sindhri Mangoes
Nendran bananas
Zamli dates. Jazz Apple. Pink lady apple.
I love Jazz apples but pink lady never grew on me. They are like polar opposites, I think.
Pink lady is my favorite apple ever. Crisp, sweet, sour. Perfection. I eat them almost every day.
Sweetango apples and sumo mandarin oranges. Sweetangos are the better honey crisp.
I like cosmic crisp apples.
Same. They’ve replaced Pink Ladies as my favorite. The texture and perfect amount of sweetness make them such a joy!
Cara cara oranges. Honey crisp apples. Alphonso mangos. Vidalia onions (not a fruit tho)
Cara cara oranges are so special and yummy.
Fuji apples when I make apple cobbler.
For just sitting there eating peanut butter on an apple, a honeycrisp. I used to go for Galas because they were cheap, but lately I decided $1 more per pound of apples is better than occasionally eating a dozen donuts when I want something sweet. Overall, just better to spend more money on healthier food than to absolutely optimize my grocery budget then binge on junk food when the optimization freaks me out.
