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.
You sure they didn’t say fruit sadness?
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
I reckon watermelons are cheaper than ramen noodle around here.
(I live in mellon land. No trees; just mellon. I think I've seen a fruit tree once in my life.)
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.
you people are spoiled; melon is melon
Watermelon with orange garnish
Looks like a fruit salad I'd make in Project Zomboid.
Just needs dog food for protein
I wouldn't mind a plate of seedless watermelon tho
Plus it probably still has that mixed fruit juice in it for extra flavor
This has been always my experience when the restaurant offers as a side a ______ or a "seasonal fruit salad"
It happened twice.
i mean it is called fruit salad not fruits salad

Who decided to put oranges in the untasty territory? And how are they difficult???
Oranges have been some of the most inconsistent fruit for me tbh. A good orange is great, but it's just as likely to be tasteless or sour. I do live far from orange farms though, so that's probably the issue.
True.
I got some sources that ship straight from Calabria, Italy.
Buying it by the crate.
Randall seems to dislike citrus fruits (see grapefruit).
bad take from Randall >:(
At least their other takes are good.
I don't agree with anything
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.
I don't agree with the position of banana
Argh. But be glad they didn't add tomato. Also technically correct, but you wouldn't want it.
I don't think that's even technically "fruit salad"...
Kind of looks like Mr Inject Bleach among a bunch of Ruskies. I wonder if they think he smells too?
What makes a salad?
here, i have some lettuce. and - here - i have some carrots. let's mix 'em!
salad?
and why is lettuse such a nessecary ingredient? i mean oh my it's a leaf
Salad means "salted" - in this context because you could prepare vegetables by cooking them, or eating them raw with salt and oil, as the Roman's would do, thus creating the "salad" we know today
