I love the doofus' justification that since it is from the cucumber family it's a vegetable... cucumbers are a fruit because they contain seeds and come from the flowering part of the plant.
You'd think yokels in Oklahoma would know something like that.

I heard somewhere that watermelon is actually a berry. Thought that was interesting
Botanical berries not commonly known as berries include bananas,[15][16] tomatoes,[1] grapes, eggplants (aubergines), persimmons, watermelons, and pumpkins:

NOT red delicious apples. They are the worst apple!
I like most other apples, pears, oranges, grapes, cantaloupe, and watermelon. I like raspberries but few other berries. We had a raspberry bush when I was a kid.
But the fruit I eat most frequently is tomatoes. On sandwiches, pizza, and pasta, the kind of stuff you wouldn't do with any other fruit.
I love all kinds of fruit. But we should consider ourselves lucky: in places like our beloved Japan, fruit is a luxury treat that you don't find everyday due to lack of farming resources, and a decent apple could cost around $5. They're usually sold as sweets like a cake or pie. Here, we take them for granted because they're everywhere.

You sure about that? Cause I was in Japan recently and there was, like, fruit.
On topic, don't eat much fruit, I prefer vegetables mostly. A banana is probably the best, because it is a great meal substitute if you are on a diet. Other than that, I guess my favourite fruits are the vegetable ones, like tomatoes and peppers and such... Chili peppers are the best fruit!
There is no way watermelon is a vegetable. It tastes good. Same way that a tomato is not a fruit. It tastes like shit.
*Ahem* *Nerd snort* ACTUALLY, while the word 'fruit' is scientific term with a specific meaning within the field of botany, the word 'vegetable' is a cullinary term which has no specific biological meaning. That means a tomato is BOTH a fruit in the botanical sense AND a vegetable in the cullinary sense! *Nerd chortle* *Pushes comically thick glasses back up bridge of nose*

But part of the reason I look forward to Christmas so much is because it's really the only time where I get to have blackberries and raspberries, which are great with pavlova. (If anyone knows what that is, I appreciate you.)

Yeah, that encompasses pretty much every fruit that doesn't have a "stone".
Nothing quite like a juicy fuzzy peach!

What!? No one likes oranges? By far my favorite fruit. Nothing comes close.
Numerous mentions of clementines, though.

Finally someone with some common sense! Tomatoes are fucking disgusting!
Berries (all kinds), grapes (all colors), pineapple, pears, mangos, watermelon, pluots, papaya, bananas, oranges, clementines, tangerines, etc...
It would probably be easier to give a list of fruits I don't like, since there are only a handful of those.
This is an absolutely impossible question for me to answer since I like and eat so many different fruits. Where do I even start?

Tasty and easy to eat.

I know it may sound suprising, but I don't like cantoloupe, honeydew, or cocunets.
I also forgot to mention above that I like cherries and nectarines a lot too!
