I have always loved Pears since I was a kid, but recently I’ve had a newfound adoration for Strawberries.

For fruit juices nothing beats the good ol’ apple juice :)

I can’t believe you like pears. Who likes pears? A fresh ripe pear is still mealy, like grainy mushy. Like an apple that’s gone past it’s prime.

You’re getting the wrong pears if they’re mealy/grainy. I haven’t seen the good pears in years, though. Everyone around me just carries those ugly brown ones that are like bags of sand inside 🤢

The good ones are green and have the same texture as an apple. But I don’t know what the species/type name is.

Asian pears are typically not mealy

I would say asian pears are less mealy but still slightly gritty. In Korea, they say that asian pears are good for a congested throat, as the graininess is supposed to help clear your throat.

Nashi pears, berries, mango. I have a pear and blueberries on me right now.

Pineapple and kiwi are my top two favs. I love sour stuff and these are the sourest fruits I know. But there is only one fruit I’ve tried that I really didn’t like at all and that is cantaloupe. Shit tastes like a mango that’s lost its flavor.

There are 2 types of melon that call themselves cantaloupe, and they don’t really taste like each other. Do you dislike both?

I’ve only ever had North American cantaloupe and until your comment, it was the only cantaloupe I knew to exist.

Now you made me look something up. I was just referring to eastern (Athena) vs western.
