Most Progressive Fruit

All too true, even in Italy nowadays. Beefsteak tomatoes can be particularly tasteless, even in summer. I generally go for plum tomatoes, which are usually tastier.

^ No no see, what he's saying is that a tomato is so progressive, people don't even know it's a fruit

The Tomato is surely the proggiest of the prog foods!

Lemon/Lime it's my favourite fruit but definitely not the most popular because not as sweet as others

I wonder what would happen if The Utility Muffin Research Kitchen joined forces with The United States Department of Agriculture Horticultural Research Station in Orlando? What a coincidence! I just ate one for breakfast.... They're delicious! I have to say I had never heard of them before I moved here, but yesterday got a bag at the grocery store, and now I am a fan.

I like them as well. I bought a net of them last week. My wife and kid don't join me on eating them, and they don't know what they are missing. They are tasty and very juicy, and not so difficult to dismantle as oranges.

That's what I wanted to say as well, though I wouldn't have said it as well  as jampa

yeah.. that was really delicious.

not sure if it is prog or not.... but then again...  I don't even know if Genesis is prog or not According to 99% of the musical world they are a pop group and should be in Prog-Related like every band that did prog albums yet is KNOWN as something other than a prog band.  Like Judas Priest haha.

Tomatoes.  Though now I'm beginning to think that it is the most punk rock of the fruits.
