I'm a little afraid to be walking around campus in this shirt... But pears (when they are ripe) can not be beat!

oh man, it's too hard to choose...but, pressed i'd say blueberries.

(this could be remnants of the recent 'good eats' program i watched where alton was extolling the awesomeness of them-either way-i luv em'blueberries & alton-ha)

I'm gonna go with a classic - an apple!

Strawberries

perfectly ripe watermelon!

Pears, mangos, pineapples, blueberries, I actually love all fruits.

Right now I'm eating cherries like mad, but I probably eat more apples than anything else. I'm a Pink Lady fiend.

pineapples. hands down. tangy sweet. now, only if they were easier to peel...

Strawberries, ESPECIALLY if they have butts.

Fresh, ripe nectarines! Followed very shortly thereafter by mangos.

I have several favorites-I love bluberries, strawberries, blackberries and raspberries. One of my favorite things to do with all of the deletible bites is to get some yogurt and add all of the above fruit with some granola. It is a great breakfast or light snack!

the always forgotten tomato... technically it's a fruit

Peach! it already looks like a butt

Juicy watermelon on a hot summer day!

pomegranate and blackberries

blueberries, all the way, no contest, absolutely.

mango (omg i'm going to egypt today and all i am eating for 3 weeks is juicy mangoes!)

meyer lemons

Cantaloupes
or pineapples

ripe strawberries

plums plums, perfect plums

The blueberry is king.
@beanalicious1 - You'd get looks from all the right kind of people:)

Honestly people, Apple is bootilicious! Look at it!

I haven't been eating too many lemon/orange citrus fruits this summer yet, mostly grapes, strawberries, pineapple, watermelon, banana. I did have some really tasty black cherries the other day.

i can't stop laughing at this!
lately, i've been really loving cherimoya. : )

i really love juicy juicy pears!

watermelon makes me absurdly happy

Such a funny shirt! I love all fruit, but summer fruit is especially good. It's a great day when I find fresh cherries for a good price!

Definitely strawberries!

There is nothing as satisfying as a juicy, sweet red apple.

And it's a rare experience, but sometimes I bite into an apple and it tastes exactly like a pear, texture wise too, and it's an explosion of happiness in my mouth :P

a tree-riped summer peach


Tough choice, but I think avocados would be my favorite, followed by mangoes and lychee. :)

strawberries. but canned peaches are a close second. ;-)

Raspberries are definitely my favorite. Fuzzy, delicate, sweet, tart, seedy and red, all in one delectable treat!

Black raspberries!

yep, strawberries. when my mom was pregnant for me she craved them constantly, and ate so many that when i was born with very pink skin she feared i had become one. and i still love them to this day. avocados and mangos though, very close second.

freestone peaches

Mango - without a doubt! I also enjoy plums and pineapples. And grapes. And tomatoes.

Soursop - but it's nearly impossible to find fresh!

bananas. I love them on/in everything: cereal, smoothies, ice cream, pies, bread pudding, etc. etc.

Bananas are my favorite because they have appeal. . .sorry.

choosing is painful, but the humble blueberry might win it this week.

Mango. Especially when it's so freakin juicy you have no choice but to eat it over a sink with the juices running down your arms to your elbows. Messy but magically delicious.

Mango!

(or cherries)

Mangosteens!

Comice pears!

Perfect, in season strawberries.

Contrary to my username, I'll have to go with the sugary sweet longan! :)

My favorite experience with fruit was as a kid eating the curiously sweet crab apples from a tree on the golf courses in the town I grew up in. Walking by in the late summer and early fall and picking a couple to munch as you walked the course still seems like magic.

pineapple and pomegranites

raspberries!

fresh, raw, perfect sour cherries. preferably fresh picked

Oranges, actually I love citrus fruits in general.

Granny Smith apples

Mangoes, but we're not talking about those wussy ones I find here in California, no my friend, I mean the perfection that I find abundantly hanging on the trees during my trips to Miami. Now THAT is a mango. Incredibly sweet and with a depth of flavor that those who have never had a real tree-ripened mango can't understand. The best part? You can just pluck them off the tree in your backyard, everyone has mango trees in Miami. :)

Cherries are delicious but make my stomach hurt. Love watermelon too.

That of the loom. Possibly that of one's loins?

That of the spirit? Definitely that of the sea.

Wild blueberries, picked at sunrise in the Adirondaks.

gotta get your daily potassium to keep up with an 11 month old... so a banana a day will do it for me.

Mmmmm, peaches

Mango
nothing beats juicy ripe mango

Sitting in the cherry tree - singing and eating cherries.

a nice juicy ripe peach can't be beat

Avocados, by like a million.

Mangosteens, with strawberries and pears close behind. Hehe, behind.

it has to be rainier cherries...yum!

Blueberries, all the way!

watermelon!

hands down, pears

That banana...um...it's not right. I think they put the "booty" on the front.

Can't live without bananas.

TOMATOES for sure.

hahah this shirt rules! of course its a threadless

I love fruit. But if I have to choose just one, apples. Preferably Jazz or Pink Lady.

Blueberries!

I have to say, I'm not really sure I get this shirt...

@Libertina -


all the illustrations have little bums! hahaha

Just about any kind of berry, but especially raspberries!

avocadoes!

ok or mangoes. both are dreamy.

WATERMELON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

blueberries and peaches, in any variation :)

Chilled Mango!

Any fruit when it's in season and perfectly ripe is a beautiful thing. But in particular I love avocados, peaches, and grapefruit

GOODNESS---mango!!! it is in a whole other league of fruit

michigan cherries or indian mangoes

Oregon raspberries

apples! you know what they say..an apple a day, keeps the doctors away.

Honeycrisp Apples- orgasmic!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The incomparable blueberry. Butter than anything else!

a perfectly juicy and sweet peach

Lilikoi (passion fruit)

nectarines have always been my favorite, although I always seem to get grief from others about this...

Jackfruit (canned or fresh), Mangoes, and tart apples either Granny Smith or Pink Ladies

Strawberry!!!!!

Ruby Red Grapefruit.

Blueberries. Or a perfect peach.

Mangoes. Or maybe pineapple. Or lychees. I can't choose!

this is sooo hard. so here's my list:
1. Ripe, sweet strawberries
2. mangos
3. black cherries/ rainer cherries
4. raspberries
5. bananas!

But i heart fruit so so much, it's nature's candy. =)

Apples. So self-contained and crunchily satisfying.

Mango! Or good sweet pineapple, or raspberries...

Michael Jackson

@beano - o no u di - int!
LMAO

Cherries for sure!

Plump blackberries off of my farm!

Mangosteen will forever be the best fruit I have ever tried. So good!

Hands down, my fav fruit is mango -- when I was a kid, my grandmother would cut slices of it up and put it in the fridge until snack time. Once I got my little fingers on those cold slices, it was over!

starfruit. and ever more so because i have it so infrequently.

every single day I start with an apple

I love cherries!! I love mangoes!! I love raspberries!!

pineapple. i would love me some pineapple booty

grapes because of the whole wine thing

Has to be bananas...by itself, in my cereal, in a smoothie, on my split, in bread, on pancakes...yum

blood oranges

you can bribe me with anything banana

Lemons. The culinary world would be so much blander without them!

I like virtually all fruit, so I can't pick.

But my favorite fruit-related thing is the signs in the grocery store this time of year advertising "Personal-sized watermelons." I always have to wonder . . . You hear those stories.

I love this!
Blueberries are my favorite, but I love most all fruits :)

i'm fairly certain there aren't any fruits i don't like, but i'm on a blueberry kick right now. well, i'm eating a lot of cherries and strawberries, too. and i have a banana every day. never mind, this question's too hard. :)

Strawberries. Yesterday, today, and forever. :)
