This was sold as a "fruit salad". Technically the truth, but not the best kind of truth.

    This isn’t a fruit salad it’s a fruit monopoly

      It’s a metaphor for the rich minority living on the backs of the working class.

    Could be worse, at least there’s no grapefruit.

      You know, I’ve never seen grapefruit in a fruit salad where I live. This had never occurred to me before, but I am grateful for it.

        Or would you say you’re “grapeful” for it?

        I agree 💯, haven’t seen grapefruit either. I don’t think it would go well in a salad. I do like grapefruit otherwise.

          I think ruby red grapefruit could work. But also, a lot of people, me included, can’t have grapefruit because it has a negative reaction with a lot of medications, so maybe it’s best they don’t.

          Which sucks, because I love grapefruit. And grapefruit juice.

            Huh interesting, had no idea. I sometimes take fexofenadine. I didn’t know grapefruit could reduce its effectiveness. I’m glad I don’t take any drug that interacts the opposite way with the grapefruit.

    Is that a single piece of orange?

    Cause, from where I am, orange is cheaper than watermelon. So… Wouldn’t it make more sense to have more orange?

    This is confusing…

      but watermelon is still cheaper per cubic meter right?
      it’s not as dense as orange

    Wow all watermelon? Could be worse. I always get shafted with a bowl of 90% honeydew melon pieces with one or two bits of something else. I’ve actually lied and said I’m allergic to melon so I can get something else.

      I assumed they would fill it with the cheapest possible fruit, which at the time I knew happened to be watermelon. If it were honeydew, I wouldn’t have bought it at all, I think. I share your dislike of honeydew

        Honeydew is a garbage fruit.

      Grapefruits are actually tasty and easy, you just have to do it right: Cut in half so that you slice all the segments, pour sugar over the cuts, then use a tea spoon, the more acute the tip is the better. They’re still tart but it’s the right kind of tartness.

    This has been always my experience when the restaurant offers as a side a ______ or a “seasonal fruit salad”

    It happened twice.

    Argh. But be glad they didn’t add tomato. Also technically correct, but you wouldn’t want it.
