This summer I’ve tried to curb my appetite for sugary sweets like gummi bears and Skittles. Instead, I’ve opted for delicious fresh fruits. We all need to make a conscious effort to make fruits a part of our daily diets.
The summer is the best season to get your hands on a the freshest fruits available and for a more affordable price. Right now, the fruits in season are: blueberries, blackberries, apples, melons, grapes, nectarines and peaches. Add them to a salad or keep them at work for a healthy snack.
So put down those sugary snacks and head to your local farmer’s market or produce store to stock up on fruits that are tasty and good for you!
What are your favorite fruits?
I put blueberries, peaches and bananas in my cereal (one fruit at a time). I also make smoothies as much as I can! They’re so yummy.
do yogurt or chocolate covered raisins count? I think so.
all fruit is delicious! and dont forget to bring a reusable bag when going out shopping one one!
@blair…. LOL, i think they do, so do lychee martinis
BGG, I just finished a bowl of fruit and it was delicious! I also had a breakfast taco. I hope my fruit still counts! 🙂
I love cherries and grapes!
I absolutely love strawberries and blueberries. This summer I’ve also changed my diet to get away from the candy. i’ve been eating lots of fruit.
i love cherries, peaches, plums, green grapes, green apple, pineapple, and pears.
I love pineapple, watermelon, kiwi, and strawberries!
@Karen: I agree; smoothies rock! I’m trying to get more into green smoothies which is just fruit mixed with spinach, kale or other green veggies…still tastes sweet though.

Hey BGG! My favorite fruit are oranges,(its become a great replacement for sour straws/sour patches), as well as grapes and apples.
apples are the best.
No has mentioned mangos…but i am from miami so this may be more a tropical fruit…also like pineapples, watermelon and star fruit.
I’ve been eating golden delicious apples all summer long. I love them
I’m a fruit so not only do I love fruit but I can eat just about any fruit you put in front of me.
On hot days I take grapes and freeze them to snack on.
