I don't hate any fruit, although, I do like some more than others. I used to dislike raspberry because I thought they smelled like ants. My taste buds have since changed. Probably the fruit I like least is the fruit of the cactus, because, to me, they have practically no taste at all.

I hate apples and I can't stand having to eat them. They taste so powdery and bleah! But I love apple juice, apple candy, apple pie, apple cake, dried apples, pickled green apples. Life can be funny sometimes. But my distaste for apples probably comes from the fact that it's so cheap that it was the only fruit that my family could afford when I was young. I was kinda forced to eat it since there was nothing else and now I vehemently refuse to eat apples as a fruit.

Maybe you dont have them in your country. They are big, kind of look like a orange. But peel is more yellowish. Inside is pinkish. Taste horrid, sour, nasty, You are not missing anything. Count yourself lucky.

i use to hate durian...coz i don't like its smell and i think it does not taste good... but just a few days back...my perception about durian totally changed! someone gave as a durian and i try eating it...to my surprise, i come to like it and i don't even feel different about its smell...hehe so right now, most of the fruits are good for me, maybe what i just don't like now is that fruit called 'tsesa'( sorry but i don't know how it is called in english} although i know that its rich in vitamin a...still i don't like it...i don't like its texture to the mouth & its smell...huh!

Ow I see... Durian is not that expensive if you can bargain it. Of course you don't buy it in store but on the street side :) I can't bargain well so usually I ask my aunt to bargain for it. Luckily we are durian maniac :D if it's durian season, you can find a lot of durian seller on the street side, and you can bargain it! Most of them are sweet but you still have to choose carefully :) I'm curious with tsesa, I wonder how it tastes, hehehe

Oh, I love watermelon! But I don't like melon. Haha. I also don't like chico. I don't even know if that is the English term of it. Sorry. Haha. Hmm, what else? I also don't like durian even if I haven't tasted it yet. I don't like the smell so I kind of think it tastes weird too.

I searched it on the internet, it called sawo in my country. I also don't know the English term for it, hahaha. I hate that it. I used to like it when I was a kid, but I hate it now. I think it's too sweet or powdery, LOL. Hahaha, mostly people hate durian because of its smell. They hate the smell so they don't want to try to eat it.. :D

I'm from Indonesia :D yes, most of people base the taste with the smell, including me, LOL.. now I try not to be like that, but it's so hard.. I still love to smell the food first before eating them.. My bad habit...
• Philippines

Oh, sawo huh? Where are you from by the way? :) Yes it's kind of powdery, and I don't know. I just don't like it even when I was young. Haha. Well, I would like to try durian some other time. Maybe it's not that bad after all because most people base the taste with the smell. I would try not to do that. Haha. Take care! :)

Durian's skin is almost like jackfruit but smaller and round than jackfruit. Both have distinctive smell but taste good.

frolicgirl49 I love most fruits but hate the taste,looks' and smell of papayas,to me the odor and flavor are just plain gross gross gross. smell like something full of chemicals I just cannot stand that odor. I love watermelon to me it smells great and jicama is more of a veggie butI love to eat it. I dont think watermelons taste weird I think they taste'wonderful and so refreshing too.
• Indonesia

Everybody has their own taste and I appreciate it. Jicama is eaten as a fruit in my country. I never see anybody use it as a veggie,hehe.. I don't know why, but I don't like its taste. I've tried to eat it several time though but I just can't eat even 1 slice!

This is very easy for me...I hate watermelon as well. I remember eating it as a kid and not having a problem with it but now even the smell of it makes me gag sometimes. My husband and kids really like it so I try to at least get a few times for them when it is in season...it takes everything I have to cut it up for them, usually my husband does it. I don't like the smell, the taste and definitely the texture...so grainy, YUCK!!!! I am pregnant so a few months ago I actually tried a piece thinking that maybe I would like it because of the pregnancy, I was wrong, I still hate it!

I only eat (or drink?) lemon when I caught a flu. Yeah,, it's so bitter.. But it has a lot of vitamin C ;)

Jelly, I hate lemons too. They taste slimy and yucky. Many people drink pure lemon juice in the morning as Vitamin C. To many, it is the best health drink. I do not concur. I rather have my breakfast orange juice anytime.

Hello Frolicgirl, I like to eat fruits. If I will choose 1 fruit that I don;t like. I think it is dragon fruit. I hate to cut dragon fruit, I hate its taste and it make my tongue full with fruit coloring, LOL. I know it is a natural coloring but still I don't like it. Once in a while I will buy dragon fruit to eat, just because its high value of vitamins.

I only ate that fruit one, I even can't remember the taste of it... There are 2 kinds of dragonfruit right? But I've tasted the red one.. So sour.. ;(

Hello Frolicgirl, Glad to see your reply. I see from the market there are 2 type of dragon fruit. One type is red flesh and another one is white flesh. But both the dragon fruits are sweet, there aren't sour taste. I don't know is there any sour dragon fruit.

I am a fruit lover. So far I haven't come across a fruit that I hate. I like local tropical fruits as well as temperate zone fruits. Fruits are great as they provide all the nutrients, minerals and vitamins that we require.

Yes, in Australia, we have avocado with savoury foods, not sweet foods. I have friends who are half Brazilian/Japanese who were disgusted when we made sushi and put avocado in it...LOL

The only fruit I know I can't eat is banana, I don't know how it called or what type of banana it is, but the one I'm referring is the big one and it skin is green. I've only eat this banana few times and every time it made me sick, so I stop trying. I like most of the fruits I have eaten and watermelon is one my favourite.
• Indonesia

I know that kind of banana! Lot of mothers feed their baby with that kind of banana :D guess I have to try to eat watermelon again :)
