I love fruit, but one thing I can not choke down is an apricot. Between the mushy chewy texture and the weird skin, it is a instant GAG MAKER.
During my recent trip with FIFI to a random town (thanks to me getting on the wrong train....) there was a small farmers market. When the stand owner saw me walking towards him he PEELED open a mini fruit and gave it to me to try. I had no idea it was an apricot, so I gave it a try.

One bite and I was in fruit HEAVEN. It was gently sweet with a firm texture and a smooth surface. I bought a large bag and they were gone within a day. Now I can't find them ANYWHERE (insert pouting here).

HAVE YOU TRIED THESE?
There are also mini golden plums, and those are delicious too! I've been eating so much fruit lately it has become my main staple. What is your favorite fruit?

nom! i love these! i kind of agree with you in general about the texture i feel the same about over ripe nectarines but when apricots are at their best they are sooo tasty!!
also got some of my new etsy designs up over at my blog!
I have not tried these, but I totally need to take a cue from you and eat more fruit. I love fruit, I'm just too lazy to wash and dry it. LAME! But I'm so getting some today when I go to the grocery store. Best snack and breakfast food for on-the-go!
I don't think I have ever eaten one that wasn't dried, wow I must try!
i love apricots! and all fruit really except papaya, it has a weird texture. anyways, so glad you tried them again i liked them!
Apricot :))))
Oh geez - thanks Claudia! Thats what I get for power blogging on lunch. Apricotos looked like I was trying to put a spanish twist on it. Ha.
Thanks for all of the sweet comments everyone :)
fruit with a furry texture outside freak me out and make my teeth feel funny haha, but I do love mini plums - they are the bomb, but aren't in season anymore!! waaaah!
Will have to wait 4 months >.<
At least you found a new farmers market :)

Yum! I love a good apricot, although I think mango and strawberries have to be my favorite fruits...
