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.
