Fiero mentioned, like, pineapple. What else is there? Seriously, my mind's cotton. Coconut? Is that a fruit?

True nuts are hard shelled fruits.

Melons.

Coconuts are fruits, and the only one of their genus.

Define a true nut from a false nut. Do peanuts count? Almonds? Walnuts? Pecans?

In broad terms, a fruit is a structure of a plant that contains its seeds.

You're a fruit.

I do contain seeds, of a sort, but I am not a structure of a plant. At least not until the machines take over.

Does cantaloupe count? Its shell isn't that hard. I guess it's kind of hard. I suppose it is a melon.

Anyway, cantaloupe. Cantaloupe is my answer.

Eh... really? He looks pretty soft to me.

Like a pillow that's seen too much action -- all distended and formless.

Cantaloupe counts in my book, and since I made this shit up, then my book is the one the counts in my book.

He's hard as a rock man, hard as a rock.

Honeydew Melon. Add some fresh mint and gingerale and blend? Mmmmmmmm.

I'm not really partial to the melon family. Imma gonna stick with pineapple.

Humus and pretzels, and I have a box of grapes, pineapples, and strawberries for later.

They have harder shells than most fruits.

Humus and pretzels

Neither is a hard-shelled fruit!

Damn it, I thought I was in the "What are you eating thread." FAIL

But the rest of the stuff was in a box, so you half-passed.
