dried bananas. i sort of hate a lot of dried fruit in general. e.g. mango is my favourite fruit but i hate dried mango. even dates that i do like i can't eat more than one or two or they start to taste sickly to me.

Mangos with chili powder or bananas with chili powder, but I'll go with pruneshttp://search.chow.com/thumbnail/300/0/www.chow.com/blog-media/2011/11/supertaster_Prunes.jpg%3Fq%3D90

You bastard, you forgot dried cherries.
Apricots, then.

I've never had dates or figs, though, fyi, except in Fig Newtons. They kind of look like cockroaches, which puts me off.

Prunes. But biting down on stone fragments that v occasionally remain in stoned prunes is dud.

Tempted to lock this thread in 7 hours because the lack of cherries is too much of an outrage.

Apricots.
A best tinned fruit poll would definitely go to peaches for me.

Dried cherries can be a touch too bitter sometimes.
