so i'm glad we all agree, limes are great, greatness gone is poopy

Limes are brilliant in so many things. I don't know how they could be considered the most useless things ever, even if you don't like them...

It's so tempting to call Greatness Gone the most useless fruit ever...

the op fails for saying lime is useless

Papaya now that i can agree with even though ironically i blended some of it with bananas, Mangos, Oats and Rum a few days back.
 
Am I the only one that thinks the durian looks absolutely fucking disgusting.

I mean, not mentioning its taste--looks completely awful.
 
Why do these gay posters usually make out of the box threads.

"I think Abraham Lincoln was hot"
" Useless fruits"

WTF is going! Why do you hate healthy foods!
 
seriously though...

anyone who says watermelon and peaches aren't good is probably not european.

Here in Malta melons and watermelons are fucken great. And grapes. They're even amazing with food.

<3 Parma ham and melons

They're swimming with seeds. I don't know who started the whole "No, wait, it's a vegetable" thing, but they need to be shot.

Holy shit!

Veggies don't have seeds in them?!

MIND = BLOWN.

WTF NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

These are VERY good, STFU >_>

BTW they´re called "ameixas" here (brazil).
Indeed, we had a big tree that would produces these every year and they are fucking delicious.

Granted only when they are ripe, otherwise they are bitter as fuck.

Yes, thank you!!! I never knew the name.

I present this thread, (one of) the most useless fruits:

Were it not for the ground cherry, the Lewis and Clark expedition might never have made it to the Pacific Ocean. Read Undaunted Courage about the expedition. There were many days where that was about the only thing those guys had to eat...
 
I'm on the 3rd (5th) page for this thread and still don't see anyone defending the LIME because of the best drink ever made, THE MOJITO???


I suppose all of the adults decided to skip this thread or something because there is NOTHING BETTER TO DRINK THAN A MOJITO!!!


Would definitely NOT read again...

actually i already said that
 
Screw you all who dare say anything bad about durians. Durians are the bloody King of Fruits. Man, I remember how excited I would get whenever my dad came home from work lugging a paper sack with three or four durians inside. Then we'd all feast and make sure we licked our hands clean before tucking into mangosteens because their cooling properties apparently negated the durian's heatiness.

Seriously, durians? AWESOME. (Also, try drinking water from the empty durian husks. Apparently it's good for you. I dunno.)

I didn't mention it because it's just too obvious.

Most useless fruit is (I don't know the name) The little orange ball inside of brown dry leaves. It kinda looks like a dried up flower. Anyone knows what I'm talking about? The ball is not larger than a grape. It's mostly used to decorate plates.
Did you ever eat one? Cause they actually taste very nice!
 
I like pretty much all fruits except for crab apples. They've got a really good amount of sour, but they're just too bitter at the same time.
 
The only fruits which I find quite ordinary are:

Rambutans: To me they are like lychees, only more expensive(where I live that is), less tasty, juicy and harder to peel and eat.

Dragonfruit: Overpriced and it's feels like a kiwifruit, only much more bland in taste.

Otherwise, I love most fruits.
 
Apparantly a banana is a herb, but it seems nobody really knows for sure. Perhaps some of you fruit/herb-savvy gaffers know the answer?
