[debm55]

16. Thank you very much, marble falls. ENJOY

[LoisB]

33. Wow. Send some to me. The ones in the markets are usually not the best.

[marble falls]

54. They're to dear for my gullet! Beautiful but pricey!

[debm55]

56. Thank you very much, marble falls. I don't know what they are. Grapes?

[marble falls]

58. These'uns ...

Taste as good as they look. Never less than $8/#, even when reds and blacks are under $4/#.

[debm55]

60. Oh. thank you very much, marble falls. So they are cherries. they look wonderful.

[marble falls]

66. They are good.

[debm55]

[justaprogressive]

8. Wild Strawberries walking away

...as Dr. Boteler said of strawberries, ‘Doubtless God could have made a better berry, but doubtless God never did’

[debm55]

11. How beautiful and how correct. thank you so much, justaprogressive.

[stopdiggin]

12. I'm an equal opportunity plunderer! (and say that only half in jest)

I'll mow through prodigious amounts - of whatever is available ! (or fallen).
But - in the 'special notice' category - tree ripened citrus - even grapefruit is (relatively) sweet, if left on the tree until 'ready' ...
Berries - again, if ripe - almost impossible to go wrong. Raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, gooseberries ....

Annnnd - we have an apricot tree out back - that the deer and coons think they enjoy part (if not complete) ownership of. But, if I can persuade them that I am in any way deserving or worthy ... A fully tree ripened apricot ... OMG !!

[debm55]

18. Thank you very much, stopdiggin. Apricots are gifts of nature when they are ripe.

[MIButterfly]

13. Cantaloupe, strawberries, blueberries.

In my youth, my favorite fruit was the pear. They were so sweet and juicy. I haven't had a pear in years because it seems like they're always rock hard and never ripen. They go from hard to rotten. Where have all the sweet, juicy pears gone? 🍐

[debm55]

20. Thank you MiButterfly. I agree the pears lately are rock hard. Love your choices. Enjoy

[catbyte]

14. Raspberries with strawberries as a runner-up.

Wild strawberries were my absolute favorite as a kid. We'd go out to the field and pick them. Tiny, yet absolutely delicious, and almost impossible to find now.

[applegrove]

24. We had a few wild strawberry plants at the cottage.

They were indeed tiny but delicious. No white parts. Red through and through.

[debm55]

47. Thank you very much, applegrove. I love strawberries that are red throughout. Great.

[debm55]

37. Love strawberries. Thank you so much for sharing with us, catbyte.

[RoadRunner]

15. Peaches

Picked off my own peach trees. Bought ones suck.

[debm55]

29. Thank you RoadRunner, I had two in the backyard. the peaches today are picked too early. Here in SW PA peach season is

not until August. I wiil wait for a farmers market to get.

[arkielib]

17. Strawberries, blueberries and oranges.

It's difficult to decide though. I like just about all fruits! Blackberries would have made the list, but the ones in the stores lately have seeds that are too hard.

[debm55]

38. thank you so much, arkielib. I go to a farmers market in the next town. Great selection.

[SARose]

19. Cara Cara oranges, peaches, and

That’s hard!

[applegrove]

23. I have to say strawberries. There was a time, after helping my mom

make tons of strawberry jam one day, that I couldn't look at a strawberry. That lasted for a decade at least. Now I love them.

Blueberries are a close second.

[debm55]

25. Thank you very much, applegrove. Enjoy your fruits.

[SWBTATTReg]

30. Persimmons, small peaches, and cherries. All natural fruits of the MO Ozarks. These fruits were grown by

many old timers in MO when they settled into the MO Ozarks. Every year was a rite of picking the fruits, canning them or making pies. Part of my heritage. Of course we had other wild things too besides the fruit trees, but too many to list. Gooseberries, rhubarb, wild strawberries, wild rose hips etc.

[debm55]

71. Thank you very much for sharing the fruits with us. SWBTATTREG. It sounds like a beautiful place to live.

32. In no particular order ...

Apples, bananas, peaches, pears, pineapples, blueberries ... it would be a lot quicker to just name the fruit I don't like.

[debm55]

34. HHAHAHAH. Thank you very much Dorothy V, You have a great selection there. Enjoy.

[Jilly_in_VA]

35. Peaches, nectarines,

canteloupe, and watermelon. I love strawberries, but it's hard to get ripe ones any more unless you pick them yourself.

[debm55]

49. Thank you very much, Jilly_in_VA. We have the ripe strawberries now in SW PA. Our ripe peaches do not come until August.

[Diamond_Dog]

36. I love whatever fruit is in season!

Right now it’s peaches, watermelon, and strawberries.

73. Tomatoes! Avocados! Peaches! Lime juice! Olive Oil! Winesap Apples! Raspberries! Coconuts!

Especially Heirloom tomatoes! Also considered a "culinary vegetable" . Avocado also considered a "culinary vegetable".

I looked these up bc I wasn't sure but coconuts, avocados, and olives, especially since no one mentioned them.

I only maaaay sort of like one small black olive type, but I love olive oil!

No one eats a lime like a citrus fruit you eat in sections...but love lime juice.

Winesap apples do have a faint wine taste. So interesting!

[debm55]

74. Thank you very much for sharing and looking up the information. electric_blue 68. You have delightful choices.
