Do you have a fruit bowl?

[wolfracesonic]

Just been looking in Home cinema & Hi fi and noticed a poster had what appeared to be a fruit bowl on display, with some actual fruit in it. Do you have one, does anybody you know have one. My mum always had/has one on display, well stocked with apples, oranges etc (courtesy of my prowess on the lathe in 4th year woodwork) but I wondered if was an 'old' people thing that's' dying out nowadays.

No, i keep fruit in the fridge.

Not necessarily a fruit fridge though.

I got a fruit bowl. At the moment it has Oranges, Apples and Pears in it. Hanging up are a bunch of bananas and in the fridge are some cherries

We tend to spend a lot on fruit and all the family like it.

Always had a fruit bowl, it takes pride of place on the dining table; always stocked with apples, bananas, oranges, etc. Other fruit is in the fridge.

I don't consider myself old; 41.

That pear on the right is going to give me nightmares. I can't stand looking at, feeling or eating any fruit with the slightest bit of brown on it. Dunno why,I eat a lot of fruit but just can't abide the thought of it!

Work provides free fruit so I'm always taking some home but no fruit bowl.

I've got a fruit bowl. We keep fruit in it. I didn't think it was a particularly unusual thing to do.

Yes we have one some woman called Orla keely designed it as well as the jug in the kitchen the tea towels and various other bits and pieces we are like a show room for the woman. Fruit is from the supermarket.

Yay!!!! manky old bananas that are on the turn! I was always told to eat those before the nice fresh yellow ones because 'They're good for you when they're like that'. Cheers Mum

The black ones are the best for making banana bread and pancakes though
