I'm playing "hide the banana" all by myself today. I'll be playing all day long.
Tom likes green bananas. He will peel and eat them while the skin is still mostly greenish and crunchy - ewww! I like them when the skin is all yellow and mostly covered with itty-bitty freckles. Which means Tom eats most of the bananas before I am willing to touch them, so I always have to hide the last banana or two. He likes green-center, crunchy tomatoes too - ick. And don't even get me started on pears.
So I have a simple question. (And I hope to prove to Tom that he is part of a very small minority here.) Do you eat fruit before it is ripe?

I am very fond of crunchy pears, truth be told, and I will eat the occasional crunchy nectarine, but other than that I like my fruit ripe, thank you very much.
My fruit must be ripe. And bananas are tricky because they can't be too ripe.
Me no like crunch fruit unless it's an apple.
Bananas are very tricky. When the freckles start to merge they are too ripe.
I can barely eat a banana when the very top is still slightly green. There is about a day to day and a half window of perfection where I will eat a banana. The kids will eat them from the day I buy them until they start to get spots. Then we make banana pudding :)
I only eat ripe fruit. Otherwise it's icky to me. *makes face*
My banana's must be green and firm. *shivers* mushy nanners icky
I like soft pears, hard apples, medium bananas(yellow, not too many black spots and lines), soft apricots, soft peaches and plums, medium strawberries (not hard, no white, but not mushy), and sweet oranges.
I like my bananas a little bit green for the firmer texture. I still eat them when they turn all yellow though. Actually, I haven't had a banana they way I like them in a long time. I buy them at the grocery store all green, but then I forget about them/don't feel like eating them, and they turn yellow and mushy on me. :(
I don't like bananas, but I like most my fruit very hard. Soft fruit grosses me out.
I'm so disappointed that this is about fruit. :(
LOL @ lights
DH prefers his fruit to be really crunchy. I buy peaches and pears early in the season when they aren't quite ripe. I think they're gross like that. I prefer juicy peaches.
I don't care for bananas, but DH and DS like them when they've just finished turning yellow. If they have freckles, it's too late and I use them for banana cake.
I am interested in learning about banana pudding.
Green bananas are just nasty! I don't even like them when they are partially green.
I am totally surprised that so many of you eat unripe fruit! But Seana, the DH eats crunchy peaches!!! Too weird.
