Fruit Season — What are the 10 Best Fruits?

What’s the best fruit in the world, in your opinion?

It is summertime in Poland and that means a ton of delicious fresh fruit,.. for a short time. I am so excited about fruit lately that I thought it would be interesting to find out from our readers (and authors) what you all think are the best fruits. So, I came up with a little idea.

We have this cool comment system — Intense Debate — that lets you vote comments up or down. My idea is: you put in your favorite fruit in a comment box (only one, sorry.. have to choose in order to make this work) and you also vote up other people’s favorites that you love. One week after publishing this post, I will check the comments and votes and we will see how you all ranked the fruits of the world.

A little geeky? Ok, yes. But I’m very excited to see what people like. So, hope you all participate.

As a little primer, I’ll run down the list of my top 10 fruits. Here we go (and yes, the order would probably change if I did it again tomorrow).

My top 10 fruits:

1. (Good) Papaya
2. Pineapple
3. Blueberries
4. Cherries
5. Watermelon
6. Nectarines
7. Kiwis
8. (Good) Pluots
9. Apples
10. Bananas

(Note: I left foods like tomatoes and avocados out of the list, since most people don’t consider them “fruits” in a practical sense of the word. Also, I wrote “good” because it can be hard to find good papayas and pluots sometimes and there is a big difference between the good and the bad ones, in my opinion.)

So, what’s you favorite fruit?!
