Yes, but dragon fruits rarely ever explore new territory, and each bushel tastes like the last.

What about plantains? They have a little more ego than the banana. I'd
have to say grapes are pretty prog because of their complex vine
arrangements.

Prog rock is to prog metal as oranges are to grapefruits.
They fall into similar categories, but the latter of each pair is heavier and more controversial.
I love these threads.

This is the best thread we've had on here in quite some time.
Oh yeah, and it's obvious that mangos are the epidome of all
progressive fruit. Apples are too mainstream, anyone can
appreciate them. Oranges have some progressive moments, but they
really fell apart in the 80s for awhile.

I dunno about mangoes, I think passion fruit is the most progressive.
Oranges are a lot like metal, you got all different kinds that differ in style; blood oranges (death metal), mandarin oranges (mainstream metal with a progressive twist)...

What about a tomato (has anyone mentioned this yet?). By nature it is a
fruit, but can be mistaken for a vegetable! It is succulent like a
fruit, yet has characteristics found in vegetables! The only drawback
is that it is tender and bruises easily, which means it is probably
picked on by prog elitists (the apples, oranges, watermelons and
bananas). I would probably classify it as Dream Theater or The Flower
Kings. ::::Notice that the tomato has a more complex seed pattern in
it's core, much more so than the apple and watermelon::: :)

Everyone is talking about Fruit and it's progability, but really, seeds are THE proto-prog. Without the seeds, prog-fruit would never have occured. We must, therefore, study the development from seed to the breakfast bowl.
Funny how no one mentions dingleberries. Any progster who delves into the cunniligual protocol of prog understands the impact dingleberries have on modern culture. One may ask, are dingleberries fruit or just a symptom of poor hygiene? Only Dr. Garten knows for sure.

Yes!
The Tomato is surely the proggiest of the prog foods!
Like prog fans, it is often mistaken for a vegetable!
