Fruit of the month - what to buy in April

I always watch and buy whatever is on sale. Once and awhile I go crazy and buy something not on ssale just cause I must have it. Like watermelon its spendy right now but I must have it.

Whittby, yes I do. Later in the spring the farmers markets will open and the produce from them is usually cheaper than in the grocery stores. Not only that but it supports our local small farmers. I so love everything you just mentioned for spring vegetables. Including rhubarb, and artichokes. LMAO

lettuce and brocolli love rubarb but no ont else does so dont get it

Out of the ones you have listed I have not tried rhubarb or artichokes but all the others I do like very much. Last week got some watermelon and it was so good. Usually fruit is not kept in the house unless we get the urge for eating some, if there is any in the house it is usually bananas and apples and sometimes oranges if they are good and sweet at the time.

I haven't ever bought fruit of the month, but I do like all of the one's listed for April. Since this is the last day of the month actually by my time it is currently May 1st so I missed buying any of those for April.

We're lucky to have a green market about 4 miles down the road... from April 1 through October 31, its bulging with all kinds of produce, and has prices around half of what the local grocery stores charge. We live out of it... we go to whatever store has the best deals on chicken and fish that week, then load up with fruit and veg on the way home. When they have exceptional deals, I freeze whatever I can, and especially like making bags of 'soup mix' that contain chopped celery, onion, carrots and peppers... when I make soup I put a frozen block in a pot on medium heat with a bit of oil, and saute and stir until its nearly thawed, then add my other ingredients and let it simmer. Chopping a lot at once saves me from doing it every time I want soup... its a great time and work saver.

here in kuwait we dont have called sale for fruit, daily is the same price, any kind of fruit.

I try to shop for things on sale and can or freeze them so we can have them all year. I was thinking about joining a co op farm this year. They are pricy to pay all at once but you get a good variety of produce each week.

I love mangos so much but I can't eat it. Seems I'm allergic to it. The sides of my mouth break out in a very painful rash whenever I even take a bite of the delious fruit. I have my own asparagus patch and soon as they are ready, I'll be eating em' like crazy for I love asparagus. As for the others on your list, only thing I will be buying next week would be broccoli since it's the only other vege I like.

Apples are usually pretty cheap up here. Even on sale, pineapples aren't cheap. How do you eat mangoes so they aren't like dental floss? My rhubarb will be ready in a few weeks, so I don't have to buy it. Besides, the store version is usually woody or tough, mine is smaller and softer. I bought some almost expired bananas last week, 19 cents for 6. 3 had to be eaten the day I bought them, the rest went into a banana bread. So, I guess I don't buy seasonally for a lot of things. My lettuce is doing great. I probably will put in some peas to my garden. Take care

None of those sound too good to me, except the pineapple and mangoes for fruit. The veggies, I only like the broccoli and lettuce. I try to buy what ever is the cheapest as long as it is something I like. I try to buy the ones that are in season as they aren't as expensive then as they are when not in season.

yeah, int he Philippines, we have mangoes also, watermelon, guava, strawberry, oranges.Fruits in season are cheapm and healthy.My grade school home economics teacher told us
