I love all fruits and vegetables, and I'm always open to trying new ones. My top three favorite fruits would be watermelon, pineapple, and pears. My top three favorite vegetables would be asparagus, broccoli rabe, and sweet potatoes. How about you guys?

    Recently tried kiwis, on good advice, and they're pretty nice. Veg would have to be carrots.

    I will eat most any fruit and veg really apart from aubergine(eggplant?) and celery. Not keen on any kind of melons either:indifferent: but love pineapples, rhubarb and strawberries in particular, and mushroom, brocolli and raw carrots.

    Ooh, mushrooms, forgot those! Yum!!

    I don't like aubergine either.

    Keep your water intake up if you're eating rhubarb as it can bring on kidney stones (which I know to my painful cost!)

    I can eat suger-snaps peas and mangetout until the cows come home. Really easy to grow as well!!! It's been lovely to come home of an evening and snack on a few of these while I water the garden.

    I love apples and Filipino mangos. My favourite veggie would have to be carrots (although I love mashed potatoes, but I don't think that's healthy considering how much butter is put into it).
  • Eek... it's like being asked to choose between children.

    Fruit: Watermelon, Figs, Persimmons, Tomatoes
    Vege: Butternut Squash, Mushrooms, Cucumber, Broccoli

    I like eggplant too! =P

    I have a real sweet tooth so I love fruits.. def more than veggies. Strawberries, mango, grapes & watermelon. I recently learned that corn is a fruit (always thought of it as a veggie) so I'd add that too lol =P

    I still try to get at least 2 - 3 servings of veggies but I usually need some sort of dressing or dip with them but I'd say carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, spinach & peas.

    apples apples apples.

    mangosteen is heaven (preferably on a beach in Thailand)

    I don't like watermelon. I don't see the point in celery (I had some in my veg box and am cutting it up REALLY small to put in chilli so i don't know it's there)

    anything fresh and in season. Plus gooseberries. Anytime, preferably with not a lot of sugar.

    I absolutely love pineapple :) On veggie side I like carrots a lot. One of my favorite drinks is pineapple-carrot juice (or orange-carrot juice) :)
  • I love almost all fruits! My favorites are bananas, apples, grapes, watermelon, peaches, honeydew, strawberries, blueberries... As for vegtables, that's where I am picky. My all-time favorite is broccoli, other than that I like asparagus, carrots and corn.

    Apples. More specifically, red apples (plain red and delicious works. I cannot stand green and everything else is just too sweet for me). I could probably live off apples and be happy. Bananas are lovely as well. And avocados. Huge fan of broccoli, cauliflower, and peas.

    I pretty much like just about any fruit and any vegetable. The only exception being raspberries, seeing as 1. they're awful and 2. I'm deathly allergic to them.
