1. rainier cherry
2. banana
3. red grape
4. blueberry
5. strawberry
no one asked but here's my reasoning:
1 - these cherries taste amazing and the pits add to the eating experience. it's fun to eat around them and spit them out. plus a cute stem that comes off seamlessly every time? game changer. Consistent in taste and and has a texture that's only rivaled by maybe number 3 on this list.
2 - bananas are tough because you have to catch them in the correct point in their livespan. They made the number two spot because of their value in different applications. that barely light green color is peak for eating on the spot. if you don't eat them in time, they're still a great neutral smoothie base and leftovers can go in the freezer and be used for bread
3 - these are such a great snack. dont even get me started because i'll finish a whole batch in one sitting. Grapes are a great complement to other classic fruits in a fruit salad. They're also the only fruit aesthetic enough to work on a charcuterie board
4 - i used to eat handfuls and handfuls of blueberries at a time out of my fridge as a kid. so tasty. They are also great in pancakes and yogurt and smoothie bowls
5 - went with a pretty mainstream pick here at number 5. great alone, in smoothies, and in salads! these fruits are really hit or miss tho. not to mention artificially flavored strawberry syrups/candies are generally horrible.

I had a blast reading this also I've never had raining cherries. I agree with getting a banana in the right colour lol. And definitely strawberry flavoured stuffs sucks although I'm not much of a fan of the berry itself but yea.

Strawberries are objectively the best because there’s no such thing as a bad one. If it’s ripe and sweet, that’s just a plus, but even the not-quite-ready ones are delicious. Refreshing, if you will. Don’t get me wrong, there’s so much good fruit, but there are none that I can love in every state and form apart from strawberries.
Worst fruit: Pears. Send that shit back to the fiery pits of hell from which it was created.

There is nothing better than fresh cherries straight off the tree, those dark red beauties. Rainiers will do too. Runner up - honey crisp or pink lady apples.
Worst: red delicious apples, granny smith apples, bananas

I don’t mind the effects; I drink cherry juice every night anyway and I will eat a whole bowl and admire the pits and stems at the end, holding my belly as big as the bowl.
I am seriously disappointed by the pear hate in our beloved community.
Least favorite: fucking bland ass melons, taking up space pretending to be a serving of fruit. No.

I've recently loved going down "related recs" rabbit holes. I feel the algorithm is so oddly spot on in suggesting posts with similar intention and context.
Even when the recs aren't suuuper related they're usually still worth a read and share some of the same words lol plus if your rec doesn't have a ton of identical related recs, it probably means you're super unique and different!!!
Jk but isn't it crazy how when something is designed for the purpose of user experience and enjoyment rather than engagement and profit people tend to like it a lot more. It's rare these days so you love to see it

I fear I worry too much about sounding educated and sophisticated when writing. Especially online
Don't get me wrong i love me a thoughtfully crafted sentence with some juicy meaning. But don't be scared to let a silly typo fly or forget a comma!! Maybe you don't capitalize a proper noun or something!! Can't think of a good adjective? Don't look up a synonym!!! Just put "good" or "very"!! This is not a college thesis.
I'm mostly talking about myself btw. In the right situations tho it's truly liberating to allow yourself to just let the thoughts flow through your fingers as you type online
