Do you eat your fruit?

~Patrick~ · 08-14-2003, 03:24 PM

Now dont lie! Fruit Loops and Jucie Fruit does not count!!! We have been making fruit smoothies and I gotta tell ya, they are pretty good. It is the season for fresh fruit so we have all kinds. We use 1/2 cup honey, 1/2 cup vanila yogurt, strawberries and bananas, and about 8 ice cubs. Throw it all in the food processor and ta-da!

I love fruit(almost as much as I love junk food). Theres nothing like fresh raspberries or biting into a juicy sweet peach. Do Jolly Ranchers count???

Oooo...summer fruit!!!

Biting into a really fresh peach and having the sweet juice run down your chin and forearm!

Fresh strawberry or raspberry crepes for breakfast!

Strawberry/banana/yogurt smoothies for breakfast!

Fresh fruit salad (sliced nectarines, peaches, plums, grapes, etc.) with a scoop of cottage cheese for dinner on a hot night!

Shall we also talk about fresh tomatoes??? Actually a fruit, not a veggie.

When I lived in Guam we ate Mangoes and eveything else you can imagine growing on a tropical island. But, mangoes were my favorite.

We drink a lot of fruit shakes in my house. We use frozen strawberries and frozen peaches with a banana and an apple and orange juice. I like to add peanut butter for a little fat and whey protein powder to make it a complete meal.

I also eat grapes and fresh fruit when it's in season especially those wonderful peaches.

And I know they're not fruit but I'm eating a lot of homegrown tomatoes right now. We have a 1000 square-foot greenhouse that my kids are growing organic tomatoes in. They're using the proceeds to help buy their school clothes. The extra benefit is all the fresh tomatoes I can eat.

I ate homegrown tomatoes until I made myself sick. Which is a bummer because I still want more!

I like tomatoes and pineapples and a few other fruits. I love fruit drinks and, uh... I guess that's it.
