While many believe all fruits are round that isn’t actually true. Here’s a list of fruit that is not round.
Durian
Known for its unique aroma, durians are a divisive fruit. Durians are known as the “smelliest fruits in the world” with a taste folks are going to love, or absolutely hate.
Banana
As far as determining the shape of the banana, this is obviously a given. Even though bananas are one of the most popular fruits in the American diet, they still serve as a great pre-workout snack because they are loaded with potassium that helps with muscle function during a workout.
Strawberry
Shaped more like a heart, the strawberry is super high in Vitamin C and is greatly appreciated for its aroma, sweetness and that popular juicy texture.
Avocado
Nutrition and fitness fans might like this one because Avocados are known to be the fruit with the highest amount of protein content (4 grams). Avocados are more oblong-shaped than they are round.
Carambola
Known as the ‘star fruit’ Carambolas are more populated in Southeast Asia. Being sodium free, the carambola is also high in Vitamin C and fibre.
Jackfruit
One of the popular fruits throughout many regions of the world, the jackfruit is known as one of the biggest tree-born fruits in the world. Mind-blowing fact about the jackfruit: a mature jackfruit can produce 100-200 fruits a year!
Date Fruit
Dates are sweet. How sweet? Well, the sugar content in dates is very high, and that sugar tends to get more and more intense as dates dry and the moisture leaves the fruit.
Papaya
With there being only two types of Papaya (Hawaiian and Mexican) this fruit is most commonly used to consume the delicious part, but most folks forget that the black seeds in the middle of the Papaya can be also used as black peppercorns. Like bananas, papayas are also high in potassium.
Pineapple
Not only does the pineapple serve as the home of Spongebob Squarepants, but this fruit is also one of the most popular fruits in the world. Fun fact about pineapples: they can regenerate. You read that correctly, yes, pineapples have the ability to regenerate when you plant a pineapple leaf. Then the leaf will grow into a plant.
Cherimoya
Also known as the custard apple, the cherimoya has a sweet taste similar to a banana or a pineapple. With the fruit being high in antioxidants, cherimoyas can also be beneficial for eye health and can help boost your mood.
