I'd choose tomatoes. They're fruits, aren't they?:p I'm a tomato addict, I can't imagine my life without them. They're super delicious, versatile, easy to grow and very healthy.
Tomatoes are the best:love:
Ditto this! I mean, what can't be done with a tomato? I love plums, but plum juice over my pasta ain't gonna work.:sick:

Haha, I know:D Plum pasta doesn't sound good at all! However, I kind of like eating bread with plums;) But of course tomatoes are the best fruits!

Well actually I just found a recipe for Fried Pasta with Plum Sauce. It seems some people have a lot of imagination when it comes to preparing food. If my cooking skills were a bit better I might be tempted to try this one.

Oranges for me without no doubt. I love that fruit and also, they said it has a lot of good vitamins, specially vitamin C, and for a smoker like me, that's a good support indeed.

I will pick apples. They keep very well for a long time, and they are versatile enough to mix or make other things with. They have high content of water and fiber too, so they will be my choice.

Apples. Definitely apples. If this fruit is the poison in Snow White's life, it is the exact opposite in mine. There's really something about it that gets me addicted. I like the way it tastes in my mouth and the sound of it everytime I take a bite. :D

Blueberries. Mine produce well, and don't take all the maintenance of our Apple, pear and plum trees. Even raspberries require consistent upkeep. Got 6 gallons of berries from this bush last summer that made it to the freezer and many more that got eaten in the garden (blueberries produce berries from June to September). They are definitely my preferred fruit for numerous reasons(y)

I'd love a bush that produces fruit over such a long period. Don't the birds go for blueberries, or are there enough to go around? We have a plum tree in our garden, but by the time the birds have had their share, there's nothing left for us.

Me and the dogs spend so much time outside in the summer that birds are not that muchly of a problem.

You're lucky. Unfortunately I don't have dogs and I don't spend much time in my garden either. We have a few stray cats that visit our garden regularly but they don't seem to keep the birds away.

What a hard question. I am so done with bananas after eating them trice a day for 14 months straight, that I still don't eat anything tasting banana over a decade later.
I do not have a sweet tooth, so anything sweet is not getting on my list of 1 fruit for the rest of my life.
I like avocado, blueberries, raspberries,cloud-berries, gooseberries, cucumber, plum, tangerine, clementine,lime, lemon, kiwi,papaya, mango and cacao- the cacao pod is technically a fruit and so is coffee berries, so unless they are in another category I'll go for coffee.
Coffee, blueberry and cloudberry is on the top of my list. They all also make excellent drinks.

I was going to say watermelon but I realized that it would not make it for long. I am going to go with apples. Apples have great nutritional and health benefits. They will last longer than most fruits. It is a good choice.
