WordPress, will you love me if I reveal my five favorite fruits?

Daily writing prompt
List your top 5 favorite fruits.

Will you ship crates overflowing with these delights? Will you sign me up for a monthly club?

Of course I must begin with the Queen of Fruit: mangosteen. I cannot forget her king, durian.

Their princess: the jackfruit.

What is the custard apple’s role in this food court?

Or what of the “regular” apple? Humble indeed. The one that we say about, “if an apple doesn’t seem appealing, then you’re not that hungry.” Honey crisp. Gala. All the pink-ladies-in-waiting, gauging hunger, keeping doctors away. And what about how it must share its name with that of a ubiquitous multinational corporation. Perpetually being autocapitalized and then accused of stepping above its station.

Is that five now?

But what about banana-blueberries-pomelo-avocado- longan- mango-raspberries-kiwi-cherries-pomegranate-grapes-lychee-tomato-persimmon-pear-kumquat-strawberries-canteloupe-pineapple-watermelon-peach-honeydew-rambutan-starfruit-black berries-oh, how can I stop?

Why such a hierarchy of fruit?

Do you love me now, WordPress?
