If you were to make a fruit salad what kind of fruit would you put in it? Me i made a fruit salad this past summer and in it i put red and green apples in it juicy red watermelon (after picking out the seeds) oranges (some fresh some canned)red ripe strawberries and pineapple. It came out very well and everyone that ate it liked it. I even had some cool whip to put on it. Have you ever tried using raisins or dried cranberries in a fruit salad or just making a dried fruit fruit salad? Which do you think is better a dried fruit fruit salad or a fruit salad with fresh fruit and or a salad with dried and fresh and canned fruit combined. You ever had a dried fruit salad before and never put anything on my salad besides a bit of sugar. Do you put spices on yours like cinnamon or brown sugar?

Fresh fruit is colorful and nutritious, it's nice to have fruits salad, delicious and healthy. Usually I made fruits salad contains chopped peaches, strawberries, bananas, and red and green grapes, dressed with a simple fresh lime and pineapple juice dressing. Well I usually add some ginger too for extra flavor, sometimes cinnamon too. Fruits salad is so delicious especially if chilled

Randomarts that sounds so good except for the bananas which i do not like or eat. yes i agree fruit salad is best when chilled because to me when chilled it has more flavor.

I put pretty much the same in my fruit salads as what you've listed above, with the addition of sliced banana. Yes I've used raisins and sultanas in fruit salads to sweeten them, especially when the oranges are a bit sour. I've not used dried (or fresh) cranberries as I'm allergic to them, but I'd imagine they make a nice addition. As for dried fruit salad, yes I've made those too, using a mixture of dried apples, dried prunes, dried figs, dried apricots and dried cherries - sometimes a bit of dried banana too, then I make a sweet sauce to soak the fruit in flavoured lightly with cinnamon. I think if push comes to shove, I probably prefer a fresh fruit salad so long as it is sweet enough (I don't like sour fruit).

I will not show any exception to any of the fruits. I will just make use of all the fruits that will get in my hands with low cost but I will make sure that I will get pineapples for making salad. I love having them and I feel it plays a major role in making the salad delicious

I like fresh fruit salad with watermelon, ripe mango, grapes, buko (coconut meat), banana, and some cream with it, too.
