I LOVE vegetables and fruit! They make up a good portion of my diet... Picking a favorite is seemingly impossible. I love them all in their own way... BUT, if I had to choose favorites...

Vegetable: Cabbage, broccoli, kale (I seriously can't choose...)
Fruit: Any type of berry, peaches, cantaloupe, papaya...

    This. Lots, and constantly changing.
    My current favorite vegetables? Brussels sprouts and broccoli. Fruit? hmm...I've been on a blackberries kick for a while, but I pretty much love them all.
    I could eat fruits and vegetables all day long.

    Veggie: I've loved broccoli since I was a kid. I never understood why cartoons would say broccoli was disgusting. I've also recently learned to appreciate carrots a lot.
    Fruit: Pomegranate? I had one for the first time somewhat recently and I love the pop they make when you bite down into them. One of my favorite things to do in the summer is stick an orange in the freezer for an hour or two and eat it chilled.

    For vegetables, sprouts and cabbage and asparagus. Oh, and tomatoes! I'm not as into vegetables as I am into fruit.
    For fruit... anything! Pomegranate, dragon fruit, peaches, pineapple, apples, raspberries, blackberries, rhubarb, grapes and mangoes are among my favourite. Lemons, too. Ooooh, and passion fruit! So good... my all time favourite is probably lychees though.

    Veggie: Broccoli, cauliflower, or zucchini (although I love the combination of eggplant and sweet potato.. weird but absolutely delicious)

    Fruit: all of them? Although I am currently obsessed with pineapple :)

    - Mixed berries
    - Red cabbage
    - Radishes
    - Celery
    - Baby carrots

    Vegetable: broccoli and cabbage.
    Fruit: Ataulfo mango with lime... when they're in season I indulge and eat about 10 in a sitting a few times. I just can't help it, they are divine. I also love bing cherries and pineapple, granny smith apples and cherimoya.

    Broccoli is so popular.

    For me, hmmm...
    Vegetable: Can vegetable group include roots? If it does, taro is my favorite. If it doesn't, I guess I'll choose Napa cabbage, mustard greens and daikon radish because they all can be pickled to make my favorite kimchi, Vietnamese sour mustard greens soup and Japanese style pickled radish. :D
    Fruit: Mangosteen or durian. Can't choose. Too bad they are so expensive here and I rarely get to eat them. :(

    Up until last week I was a vegetarian so to say I really LOVE fruits and veggies is an understatement! I don't like mushrooms, beets or radishes (much easier to list what I don't like!). After trying to unsuccessfully consume lobster and eating one steak and feeling totally gross afterwards, I think I'll be back to my veggie ways.
