I am a picky eater, have been a picky eater all my life. I managed during my late teenage years and early twenties to acquire a taste for vegetables (and I am grateful that I did), but fruits (apple, grape, etc) are still a problem for me.

I have identified however, that I like

  • Mango
  • oranges
  • lemons

Now I wonder what fruit I could "try" next. Preferably I would not start with Apples and Bananas (as a kid it was constantly suggested I should eat apple/bananas that I don't have the best memories in this regard, I think these will be tougher fruits to start with).

Why am I asking this? Ultimately I want to balance out my diet more and potentially get into a position where I can opt for fruit over chocolate if I want to have something sweet.

Persimmons are nice, just keep in mind that they are quite rich in fats. Also, supermarkets frequently sell them under-ripe because they look better, but then they are quite bitter. Look for ones that already have some soft spots, that's a sign that they are sweet and ripe.
