AN ANALYSIS OF SOME PURPLE FRUITS

Yummy
It is well known that there are fruits in the world. Fruits can come in many colours. If you receive a fruity flavoured thing and it's purple, what fruit do you immediately think of? Probably grape, but actually that's not even the best purple fruit (see more on this below).
If you've been wondering about this, then you're in the right place. Here you will get a run down of at least 4 purple fruits and their ranking. I am certain this will set you in good stead to live the rest of your life more aware of all the purple fruitiness that could catch you unawares.


An Overview: Ranking the Fruits

Fruit Ranking
Blueberry 1
Purple Grape 2
Plum 3
Fig 4
Blackberry 5
Prune 6
Black currant 7
Elderberry 8


Blueberry: a case study As you will know by now, blueberry is indeed the superior purple fruit. I hope this is unsurprising to many of you as they are most definately the most delicious. They are also full of surprises! Will it be sweet, tangy, plump, chewy? Who knows? Not me until its already in my mouth.

Purple Grape: a case study Ah, the infamous purple (red, shh) grape. This is a touchy subject for me, because while I LOVE the fresh fruit, grape flavoured things are disgusting - no arguments. But for just the fruit, they are pretty top teir - crunchy, juicy, sweet and cheap when in season. What's not to like?

Plum: a case study Plum, plum, plum... Why are you so expensive? Nothing worse than spending $6/kg and they're cruchy and sour. However, get a plum on a good day and it's a magical experience. This ranking is based on mostly the latter experience, but I could not shake the shadow of the former looming above my decision.

Fig: a case study Now, fig is a tricky one because I can't say I actually know much about them except that they're a type of tree. I also recall there's a lot of seed action going on? However, my memory does produce memories of a sticky, sweet, chewy fruit and that just sounds delicious, so it gets 4th place.
