a lot of people prefer fruit and not the vegetables because fruits are more delecious, but the vegetables are healthier and contains a good ammount of vitamins that help your body.so do you prefer fruits or vegetables?

I have always preferred vegetables, favorites being christmassy ones like sprouts and sweet potatoes but I guess its just the way my mum prepares them. I cant stand them if they are undercooked or frozen then reheated though like in school dinners. Quite like tomatoes though, I think they are my most common ingredient I use when cooking apart from garlic and onions. Also in the summer I quite like cold water melon but its pretty hard to get good quality water melon in Northern Ireland as they are always past their best after they've been imported and I like eating from local fresh produce.

Not where I come from all the fruits are imported and taste funny, we have quite a cool climate so we don't produce a lot of fruit locally. I only like eating fruit when we go abroad to Central Europe Slovenia has a great selection of fruit, and Israeli oranges are amazing!Primarily juice actually they taste really good. I also liked eating water melon when I visited the East coast of North America but they are past their best by the time they get to us and full of preservatives probably. I ate this imported apple one time and it tasted Bizarre like a mixture between a strawberry and an orange, not normal at all and it looked really good but it wasn't inside. So kinda put off fruit. Would still eat grapes with cheese though.

Hi Marwen, I don't like fruits and very seldom take them. So I would get my vitamins and minerals from vegetables, which I would take with every meal.

fruits and vegetables - fruits and vegetables of different kinds
i definately prefer the sweet fruits to the vegetables though i must say that i love eating salads too...veg salads that is..... but its definately more enjoyable having fruits than vegetables any day..... my favourite fruit is the custard apple (i know its a lil cumbersome eating it though) but none the less i still love it.... there is actually no fruit that i hate but i do hate some of the vegetables like the capsicum, brinjal, bitter gourd, brocolli..... i dont include those in my diet!!

I prefer fruit to veggies because of the taste. Fruit is sweeter and is fun to eat. That doesn't mean that I don't eat my veggies. I know they are an important part of eating healthy because they comtain many important nutrients. But my first choice would have to be a sweet tasting piece of fruit!

Well, it depends on the situation you are in. If I am outside and I am hungry I would prefer fruit. But when I am at home I will surely go for vegetables.

Hello,Marwen! As I am a vegetarian I eat lots of vegetables and fruits.Vergetables we cook to eat with lunch and dinners and fruits we eat in the evening and sometimes in the morning.These fruits and vegetables provide me all sorts of vitamins,minerals and nutrients as required by the body.thanx.

Fruits are preferred by the majority of people because they taste sweeter than vegetables, and so are the likely choice over vegetables. I prefer fruits over veggies any day.
