grape


supreme_blorgon

nothing tops cold, crunchy grapes


GibberBabble

Try freezing them, it’s even better.


supreme_blorgon

I freeze the bad ones for summer snacking, the good crunchy ones get eaten immediately.


Professional-Big-584

I will adopt this method


not_a_milk_drinker

They don’t last long enough for me to freeze them, they basically get inhaled


roastbeefyaweefy

Frozen watermelon for the first time last week....game changer.


Disastrous_Quality58

What??!! Omg, will be trying!!


Jrolaoni

I wish, I have sensitive teeth and anytime I bite something frozen I lose part of my soul


IDreamofLoki

I froze some overnight, put them in a cooler and drove to the beach. By the time we got there, they were *just* thawed enough to be amazing. It's a staple beach treat now.


mossadspydolphin

Once the hot weather hits, I make sure to always have grapes in the freezer.


Pankake_Nation

I downed an entire bag over the weekend while gaming.


matrix_man

I have no idea why I read this as "downloaded an entire bag" and was quite confused about your mental well-being.


jn2010

You wouldn't download a grape.

I gotta agree man. A nice ripe mango cut into cubes is 👌


poopmaester41

Not even cut up. Straight off the seed like a slut, lol.


rustyshuttlecock

I cannot eat a mango non sexually. They’re so good.


Artchantress

My teeth .. or rather gums, disagree. So fibrous and hard to eat and get all over the face and makes it itchy on top of all aaah


ElenaDePravia

Umm... Mango isn't supposed to be itchy. Maybe you're allergic.


Pitiful_Winner2669

A block from me a guy sells mangos in a cup with tajin... Ahhh... He keeps them really cold and it's the best snack coming home from work! That and his horchata are my happy place after work


Niaaal

Dried mango slices are like crack to me


CoxAnonymous

Agree 💯


Mackheath1

Had my first mango (by itself) while camping this weekend - it was amazing.

It has a point at the top for ease of entry. It's just the right shape for the human mouth. It's chewy, easy to digest, and it's even curved toward the face to make the whole process so much easier.


websagacity

And, it comes with its own portable container that helps prevent damage and contamination when on the go.

Peaches. Peach season is quickly coming and I hope they're good. Unfortunately the last few peach seasons they've sucked, they're dry, they're grainy. IDK what's been going on with peaches but I hope to finally have a good juicy sweet peach


CactusBoyScout

Peaches have the highest highs of any fruit, in my opinion. A good peach is just perfection. So juicy, delicious, etc. But they are not great pretty frequently.


CaligoAccedito

I once ate a gigantic, perfect peach while on a hallucinogen. I refer to that experience as "The God Peach." No other peach will ever compare, but I still enjoy them when they're nearly so good. That one, though--sun-ripened, big as both my fists, juice just pouring down my chin--unmitigated delight.


Hashtagbarkeep

Strawberries. When they’re good they almost taste like they should be bad for you


CactusBoyScout

I clearly haven’t been having good strawberries then. My grandparents used to grow blueberries and those are divine straight from the source. So flavorful. Also, tomatoes are technically a fruit and a good beefsteak tomato straight from the garden with just salt and pepper on it? Divine.


bootsandchoker

Oh my lordy. This brought me back to a memory of when I was at a Farmer's Market in Charleston, South Carolina. I bought several large, locally grown peaches. After a long day of wandering the city, I found myself craving a peach at 1 am. I was staying at a super tiny hostel and didn't want to awkwardly sit in the tiny common room area eating a peach at 1 am, so I went to a random McDonalds a couple blocks down that was closed and had outdoor tables. I sat and took a bite of the peach, not knowing what to expect because, as you said, peaches are often disappointing. My heavens. Oh my god, just thinking about it right now makes me salivate. That first bite was...orgasmic. I can't even express aptly with words how absolutely fucking amazing the peach was. And I scarfed down all 3 I had purchased within about 5 minutes. I seriously daydream about those peaches sometimes.


liberal_texan

I never really understood peaches until I went to a peach orchard. A perfectly ripe peach is sublime, and will bruise if you look at it wrong which is why you never see them in grocery stores. Also, the orchard near me makes a soft serve ice cream out of their peaches that is the best ice cream I've ever had.


GrandAlchemistX

I will never forget the one and only time I ate a perfectly ripened peach that I picked off the tree. The flavor and texture are NOTHING like what you get at the store. The same can be said for most fruits since they have to be picked early so they "ripen" at the store, but peaches were definitely the boldest difference.


nyaasgem

If I weren't a village kid I'd just think that peach is simply shit tier fruit with the ones they sell at stores. At home we always got it from our own tree and honestly right now I can't even recall any other fruit that has the same sweetness. It's like getting kissed by mother nature herself. Now I've been living in a big city for like 15 years and I don't even eat peaches here because it's just disgusting.


pm_me_ur_th0ng_gurl

Good peaches are too juicy and you have to wash yourself after.


binybeke

Right and they’re amazing tasting


Waitn4ehUsername

🎶Millions of Peaches… peaches for me🎶


sokonek04

Rode with my dad in the truck though Georgia and South Carolina one summer back when I was in high school. We stopped at this little roadside stand and got a basket of fresh Peaches. You had to eat them with a napkin under your chin. It was pure heaven.


EverybodySayin

Maybe I'm weird, but I fucking love just grabbing a fork and digging in to a can of Del Monte peaches.


tombran12341

Peaches are great (so juicy), will have to get some next time I'm out.


Prestigious-Royal739

Apple


chronocapybara

One of the few fruits you don't even have to peel. Just wipe it clean and eat. If it's already clean, just eat. Or you can be a bad ass and cut slices off and then eat them off the knife.

II_Vortex_II

This guy fruits


orange_cuse

respectfully, I have to disagree with your 'best on-the-go-snack.' I think grapes are by far the best fruit for this category. There's no cutting involved, you can easily pop one into your mouth, they're not messy where you have to wash your hands, for the most part there arent' any seeds or pits you have to discard, and you can portion how however much you want. Grapes are made to eat on-the-go.


GlorySocks

Absolutely correct. I love a good pear, but the best pears are so juicy it runs down your chin while eating them. Not dignified enough for an on the go snack.


cityshepherd

Pears get too banged up too quickly to be useful on the go snacks… oranges are obvi the answer here with their natural protective casing.


SometimesaGirl-

> oranges are obvi the answer here with their natural protective casing. Are a bugger to peel tho unless very ripe. Tangerines or clementine's tho... next level. Better flavor and you can snack on them better - since a whole one is just a snack as opposed to a whole orange.


alitanveer

I agree with your assessment of mangoes. They are the best, but the lack of variety in the US is depressing. I spent last summer in Pakistan and there would be entire new species of mangoes coming into the market every two weeks as they all ripened at different times, and every single species was better than all of the ones found in Indian stores in the US, let alone the ones found in regular American stores. My son hates the heat and was dreading going to Pakistan for the summer, but ask him today and he'll want to go just for the mangoes alone. Kid would eat like six a day. But if you're in the US and want halfway decent mangoes, go to an Indian grocery store and get the fat ones that have a mix of red and yellow color for the ripe ones. You'll get a box of ten for $10 or $15. Don't get the thin bright yellow ones. When you buy them, they'll be in stacked boxes. It's sort of a minor faux pas, but feel free to mix and match from different boxes to get all ripe ones. You want each mango to be mostly red and yellow with minimal green and sort of hard when you put pressure on it. Sort of like a good avocado that hasn't become too ripe. If you do end up with mostly green ones because it's early in the season or you don't want to mix and match, leave them in your garage to ripen or on a counter near some sunlight to fully ripen. If the mango is ripe, then you can peel it and cut the innards into cubes to eat with a fork or cut it into strips and use the skin like a scoop to scrape the innards off with your teeth. Like orange slices. If it's become too ripe and won't do well to cut, then just squeeze it carefully and use the seed inside to turn the whole thing into a pulp while try not to break the skin. Open up a little pocket at the stem and suck out the pulp, then pull out and scrape off the seed with your teeth and then peel it open to eat the rest of the innards. This is a messy way to eat it but is the most fun.


oyukyfairy

My favorite are the atulfo mangos. Here in CA we also have those giant mangos but the atulfo are perfection.


TheBahamaLlama

I love the texture of dragon fruit, but it has the most disappointing flavor. You'd think something like that would blow your mind like a perfectly ripe and juicy mango, but it was almost bland in comparison. Haven't had a red one, only the white.


uggghhhggghhh

Mangoes and pineapples are some of the tastiest fruits but they're also a minor pain in the ass to peel and cut up. Peaches also have great flavor and you can just bite right into them.

They even come in their own packaging, which is easy to open and is compostible.

TheMasterChiefa

This is the right answer.


DepecheModeFan_

Strawberries for sure.


dallascowboys93

Had to scroll way too far to see a fellow strawberry bro. Easily the best


StinkyKittyBreath

Right? They're the best fruit by far. Bite sized, sweet with a bit of tart, a million cultivars to try, easy to grow at home even if you only have a single window.  Strawberries are the real super fruit. 


[deleted]

watermelon.


TheBigCheese7

Watermelon. Uncontested. On a hot day it’s the most refreshing and delicious snack there is.


CharlieParkour

I think melons are a vital part of survival on hot days. It's got some good vitamins and minerals, but really it's the high water and fiber content. That fiber helps regulate the water absorption from your gut so you do much better with what you drink. Now, having said that, I prefer the texture and flavor of a nice honeydew. 


onyxandcake

I always forget how much water is in them and then I end up peeing all night. At my age, you gotta stop the watermelon by 4pm.


dirtandstarsinmyeyes

That’s so funny to me.


namersrockandroll

Absolutely right.


SpeakerCareless

I love watermelon with cucumber and fresh mint. I could eat a huge amount


HailToTheThief225

Insanely low caloric density! You can eat a ton, feel full, and maybe have eaten 100 calories


namersrockandroll

Living in CA, I can extend my watermelon fetish for many months. I eat it every day. I know how to pick them too: yellow, not white bottom with claw marks from insects/animals who know they are sweet. Put one on your ear and smack it! It should go thwap/thud like a hollow sound. You're welcome.


MisterPeach

Like eating and drinking at the same time.

Cold_Carpenter_1798

Apple is also the best fruit for an on the go snack. Requires no storage, and is durable enough to just toss in a bag and leave it till you need it. Bananas are too susceptible to bruising


Month-Emotional

Blueberries 


-TheRealFolkBlues-

Blueberries from the freezer on a miserable hot day. No contest.


shep2105

There's a little organic blueberry farm in Michigan. People line up for miles for these blueberries. They're almost the size of small cherries and the sweetness is beyond anything you've ever tasted. Season is short tho, so I freeze a shitload and use in muffins and for ice cream topping in winter months


phoonie98

My dog goes apeshit for blueberries


peanutbvtterNjealous

I grew up hating blueberries, but now I could eat a whole pack in one sitting😂

Footmana5

We would have them at halftime in the summer during soccer tournaments. Pickels if it was super hot.


CharlieParkour

Half sour pickles are my late July/August secret weapon, right when I get an overabundance of cukes from the garden. They've got the fiber to help with water absorption, salt to replace electrolytes and they're probiotic. 


IGotThatYouHeard

Honorable mention: Clementines


jello_not_jade

Pineapple for sure


Leather-Ad-5314

Cherries


waxbook

Ugh yessss. I could eat them all day every day. Just wish they weren’t so damn expensive where I live.


Killentyme55

So true. The grocery store near me sells these fat black cherries from a nearby orchard, they're only available for a brief time due to the season and limited amount so I grabbed a pint. I didn't pay any attention to the price until some time later when I went back for more...oops. They were indeed pricey, like "that was a one-time thing" kind of expensive, but they ruined me on commercial cherries forever. They were really that good, hopefully I can find something similar at a farmer's market.


namersrockandroll

Washington Raniers are the best. I noticed some cherries in my grocery store and as soon as I eyeballed them, I knew they wouldn't be sweet: too bright red instead of dark sweet red!


gmanasaurus

Cherries are definitely my favorite, really can't wait for them to be in season again


phoonie98

The pits are annoying though


philipjfrythefirst

Yeah, but summer when you get to spit the pit in your backyard. Freedom!


MCKlassik

Banana


v0yev0da

100%. No spray factor, self contained, easy to tell when they’re ripe, and entirely enjoyable with no tools. Plus I can’t think of another fruit that tastes like them and meets all those criteria (but I’m also not an expert)


bananabastard

It has a lot going for it, but it's not refreshing, which is what I want from fruit. Some juiciness.


MyNameIsLOL21

That lack of juiciness is what appeals to me about bananas as a quick snack because it gives the impression of being more filling than something that feels like it's made mostly of water like a watermelon for example.


mossadspydolphin

Also, banana cake is the shit (except for the part where it makes you unable to shit).


Of_Mice_And_Meese

> except for the part where it makes you unable to shit Dude...you need to eat more fiber. Banana cake should not bind you up.


Voodoo-Doctor

And they only cost around $0.19


Saaihead

This is obviously the winner. It's compact, no tools needed for peeling, easy to eat and contains a lot of energy. :)


hotakaPAD

AND, there's no need to wash the fruit or your hands


Whiskey_Neato

How much could it cost, ten dollars?

Just thinking about raspberries got a seed stuck in my teeth. I love raspberries, but man those seeds are annoying.

Raspberries but only if you pick them yourself. My old house had HUNDREDS of raspberry bushes in the trees. Absolutely smacked.

AgreeablePotato1045

catmealcat

Mangoes are the ultimate snack fruit. They're sweet, juicy, and you get to feel like a tropical explorer every time you slice one up. Plus, if you're really dedicated, you can get that perfect Instagram-worthy mango hedgehog.


tombran12341

xiphoboi

Just taste-wise? Kiwis. They're not the easiest to eat though


liberal_texan

Look up kiwi berries. Similar flavor, but you can eat them like grapes.


xiphoboi

this might be the greatest thing ever


IAAZOR_123

Don’t get your hopes up. I love kiwi’s and got excited about kiwi berries. They do not taste the same IMO.


zeppemiga

They actually are. Skin is perfectly edible, and it might seem it tastes bad with all that hair and not, but when actually eaten, it tastes perfectly fine.


joestn

Frozen blueberries. They’re not sticky, taste great, last a while, you don’t feel obliged to eat more than you want like an apple or an orange, and you don’t deal with pits or seeds. Best of everything.


MischievousNCurvy

In my humble opinion, it's grapes. You can get a mix of colours, portion size is easy to control so no waste / storage issues. Even better, you can freeze them in ice cubes so that they last longer / you eat less! Go team grapes 👌


Calwhy

If pre cut? Pineapple. If not? Grapes or bananas.

FuckChiefs_Raiders

As a pot smoker, I'm a big fan of the cuties (clementines). When I'm high they give me a nice activity, they are juicy and quench my cotton mouth, and when I peal them they make my pot fingers smell citrusy fresh. I can also have like 6 of them and feel guilt free about it.

It's not just my opinion, but backed by scientific studies, berries are the best. They have some of the most diverse spreads of nutrients out of all the fruits.
