There are always discrepancies when it comes to "the best of all time" lists. Whether the question is, "who is the greatest football player?" or "what is the best song of all time?" nobody can ever truly come to a solid agreement. Now, seeing as I am extremely intelligent, extremely handsome, and possibly the most humble person you will ever meet, I have been able to compile a finalized list of one of the age old questions: what are the top five greatest fruits of all time?
#5. Tomato
I already know what a lot of people are thinking, "A tomato is a vegetable". Sike, it's actually a fruit, which is why it makes the list. Estimated to have been around since the 1540s, this ancient artifact of a food is used to make possibly one of the most prominent condiments of our generation: Ketchup.
Pros: Makes Ketchup, can be put on burgers and sandwiches, easy to throw.
Cons: Not the most exciting to eat by itself, constantly have to remind people it's not a vegetable.
Overall Rating: 3/5
#4. Grapes
This little snack bites look like Dr. Evil got a hold of some melons and went to town with his shrink ray. One of the more controversial fruits, by some, are considered to be apart of the melon family. They are very common in school lunches, and are used to make jelly, wine, and jelly wine.
Pros: Easy to transport, makes a multitude of other products, on the Fruit of the Loom logo.
Cons: Sometimes have seeds, can't eat the stem, possible choking hazard.
Overall Rating: 3.2/5
#3. Pineapple
You may feel a little confused when I tell you this, you might also start to question some recent life decisions you made, but the pineapple isn't related to the apple, it's actually considered a berry. Commonly related with tropical drinks and swim up bars, this treat can make anything taste good.
Pros: Super sweet, represents good luck during the Chinese New Year.
Cons: Spiky on the outside, basically on 80% of all PacSun clothing.
Overall Rating: 4.35/5
#2. Watermelon
Seemingly the head honcho of the melon family, this tasty treat is one of the most versatile fruits on the market. It makes for one of the more popular snacks at a family BBQ, and its "shell" can be carved into whatever your mind can think of, which is why it is commonly referred to as the summer pumpkin.
Pros: Will keep you hydrated, not much chewing involved.
Cons: Kinda heavy, if you swallow a seed a watermelon will grow in your stomach.
Overall Rating: 4.8/5
#1. Apple
Referred to by most as the GOAT (Greatest of all Time), experts say this is the only known fruit with the ability to "keep the doctor away". This fruit is so amazing, a man by the name of Johnny changed his last name to Appleseed and devoted his life to spreading the good word about the fruit.
Pros: One of these a day keeps the doctor away, makes apple pie and the iPhone.
Cons: None known.
Overall Rating: 5/5
There's the list ladies and gents. Disagree if you will, but you can't argue cold, hard facts like these. Go out and have yourself an apple or a couple grapes. Go out and spread the good word about fruits to the population because frankly, we owe it to these incredible foods.
