Fruits are better than vegetables. It is not an opinion, but a fact. Fruit has much more flavor than vegetables and satisfies your cravings. Have you ever heard of someone craving vegetables? I certainly haven’t. Tasting the juiciness of pineapple, cantaloupe, or watermelon is much more fulfilling than eating a carrot or some lettuce. Almost everyday I eat fruit, but the same cannot be said for vegetables. A salad once in a while is a good call, but not more than once a week. Fruits just have so much more flavor than vegetables.
Here are my favorite fruits (when they are most ripe) in order. If you disagree with the order you can give yours in the comments. Here are the top 5:
Cantaloupe
Grapes
Pineapple
Apple
mango
The rest don’t really have a certain order. I don’t know if it's just me but even though I like a lot of fruits, I cannot stand eating strawberries. I like them in my smoothies or basically anything else, just not when it comes to eating it by itself. Let me know if that is just me or if any of you are the same with that. Well, what do you guys think. Fruit or vegetables? If you could choose one for the rest of your life which would you choose?
I love fruits and vegetables, but I have to disagree. They're so different, but if you season vegetables correctly or even just char some brussel sprouts or sauté some spinach, it is to die for. I love vegetables and definitely crave both fruits and vegetables at different times. Fruits are snack foods for me and vegetables are for meals/side dishes.
ReplyDeleteI agree with this Dana, and especially Zach's point about salads is flawed. Salads are AMAZING, and you can't say that they're only good once a week. I think that fruits are a better snack, but vegetables go better with meals.
DeleteI was okay with this post until I saw cantaloupe as your favorite fruit. I'm a huge fan of both fruits and vegetables (and I have a super similar mindset to Dana with the snack/meal thing), but cantaloupe? That's gotta be the worst fruit ever. Maybe honeydew is worse. But cantaloupe tastes like a wet sock and gutter. It's literally called the garbage fruit for a reason. And its seeds are so weird too. Idk man something about cantaloupe is just the worst. I also would love to see you spell cantaloeueiope without looking because it's almost as hard to eat as it is to spell. I hope you enjoy your trash fruit :-)
ReplyDeletePlease try to consider some better fruits, like: raspberries, blueberries, peaches, cheetos, kiwi, cherries, literally /anything/ else. #cancelcantaloupe
Much like you Zach, I enjoy many fruit, I understand your point, but I feel it's not a fair comparison. Culinarily speaking at least, fruits and vegetables are so fundamentally different flavor wise. You're not merely comparing apples and oranges Zach, you're comparing apples and asparagus.
ReplyDeleteI think I have to agree with Noah and Dana. Vegetables are for meals, while fruits are for snacks. That being said, salad is one of my favorite foods, or rather assortment of foods, but I hold apples sacred like a farmer holds the soil sacred.
