| Everyone loves apples... heck, if you ask someone to think of a word that starts with A, what word will they probably come up with? Apple. Everyone loves those tasty treats, either alone, or as juice, or in pies, or a number of other ways. Then you have pears. They... exist. Some people eat them. Some juice companies dilute other juices with pear juice to save money. And... that's about it. If you think about it, apples and pears are fairly similar, as opposed to apples and bananas, or apples and oranges, which are more different. But apples and pears... they're practically siblings. And it's apparent that their mom played favorites, favoring the apple of her eye, and looked at her other child, the pear, like some disease. Pears are like the poor man's apple. How, or why, did this happen, anyway? Don't get me wrong--I prefer apples to pears, myself--but still, how did this happen? Certainly, there must be some people out there who prefer the pear to its more popular sister. Right? Heck, just about every fruit is more popular. Berries are cute, sweet, and juicy: pears are stringly and slimy. Pineapples are tangy and exotic: pears are lifeless and bland. Heck, lemons are more popular than pears! No one eats lemons, but everyone uses lemons for everything else: lemonade, lemon tarts, lemon donuts, lemon pies, lemon sherbet, lemon Pine-Sol, lemon vehicles... it just goes on and on! And what do pears get? Pear... in a tin can! Even prunes, for goodness sake! Old people like prunes, at least, but still, no one appreciates the poor pear. Even we like prunes more, mostly joking about the prunes, making fun of prunes... but we never take the time to make fun of pears. They just exist, and we couldn't care less. In short, pears suck. But you still have to feel a little bad for the poor--ooh, lemon! *Knocks the pear out of the way to see the lemon.* |

| I like pears. Apples are better though, becouse I quit drinking caffeine, and thus I get my energy boost from their inordinate amounts of sugar. Raisins are alright. Waffles own. And I'm working on being able to tolerate eating lemons. So you won't be able to say that no one eats lemons. It'd be fun to eat one like you'd eat an apple, orange, or pear in front of someone, and see the look on their face. |

| Pears are awesome since they're so watery. No other fruit is like a pear. Apples are too hard and lame. Pears rock. Only problem is they're almost never sold. (edited by Kratos Aurion on 09-06-04 11:16 AM) |

| Umm frst of all... Watermelons are the greatest what the hell are all you talking about! No you nothing! I hope the field of water melons fall down the hill and crush you while you are eating your nasty pears! Yeah apples and the rest suck, but watermelons are the best. (even though I am not sure that it is a fruit, but it does grow on a vine making it a fruit <.<) |

| Ironically guess which fruit we only have at home right now... yes pears. I used to like raisins, but with a kinda accident with a "larvaa", I lost the appetite for raisins.  |

| Watermelons are great. They're also fairly popular: that's why I wasn't talking about them. Pears... who the heck ever mentions pears, or eats pears, though? Even raisins, people use in cookies, or they make fun of how awful they taste... but no one does that with pears. They're truly neglected. |

Originally posted by Squash Monster Some people actually eat lemons like grapefruits. You know, but cutting them in half and using a sharp spoon to dig out the flesh? I suppose it wouldn't be that bad with sugar, but that would only mask the sourness, and I find raw sugar gross. On the other hand, limes might not be so bad, they are actually quite sweet. But yeah, not a lot of meat on them. |
