fruit? not for me, but thanks.

i forget that not everyone who reads my blog knows this tidbit about me, which others find either fascinating or stupid:

I HATE FRUIT.

i won't touch it. it's a texture thing, but this makes me look even more like an ass because i do like a lot of veggies, and sushi too. although now that i think about it, i don't really do the raw sushi - usually rolls that consist of cooked ingredients. but the texture of most fruit just grosses me the hell out. and the taste of fresh fruit isn't yummy to me, either. like, i had a glass of freshly-squeezed grape juice at il fornaio once, and it gave me a whole new appreciation for welch's.

yes, i do like fruit-flavored things, and i drink juice. but if there's fruit in anything on my plate, it's getting picked out. and don't ask "even apples? or [insert random fruit here]??" yes, even apples and any other kind of ordinary (or exotic) fruit.

no.
thank.
you.

i just googled "fruit aversion", and i was amused to find this post. turns out i'm not the only one after all!
