I love fruits

I love eating all kinds of fruits and Papa says that's good! So apart from the 'common' apples and orangesPapa also exposes me to all sorts of other fruits, including some 'superfruits' which are supposed to have greater health benefits than other fruits. To Papa, 'superfruits' are just another marketing ploy to make people buy more such exotic fruits and at higher prices. Papa have never heard of any fruit being bad for anybody (except maybe durians and jackfruit, but that's a matter of taste) so, Papa believes in a varied diet of fruits and without saying one type of fruit is 'super' and another is 'not-so-super', it is good to know some fun facts about certain types of fruits and how fruits are good for you.
