What's in Your Fruit Bowl ?

apples and bananas.

I ate an entire package of blackberries with my oatmeal this morning, so I guess I can't count that too lol. I also have some tomatoes which I guess are fruit, though I don't keep them with my fruit basket.

Yes, I think I ate it too soon...it left a weird dry prickly sensation in my mouth.
That's a sure sign of an under-ripe persimmon. I didn't even know they had non-astringent persimmons- maybe they're different... but the ones I've always had weren't ripe until they were so soft you'd almost think they were rotten. They weren't oozing or doing anything disgusting- they were just very soft, much softer than a ripe peach or plum. I think they were as soft as a VERY ripe tomato.

I'm not keen on the ones that are astringent. However, when they are ripe they are delicious.

This is great, thank you! I'm pretty sure I have only ever seen the Hachiya but I will definitely be on the lookout. I may hop around to a few stores on my lunch hour today. Maybe TJ's or Whole Foods will carry different varieties.

I'm sure that you can get them at WF's.

Strawberries, kiwis and apples.
 
Blueberries (in the fridge, actually), bananas, grapefruit. I want apples.
