But don&#8217;t call me a fruit-ist, because I enjoy almost all other fruits.  Although I also really hate those damn <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ugli_fruit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ugli fruits<\/a>, because I&#8217;m not going to be what I eat.  <\/p>\n<p>Sure, cantaloupe sounds funny when you say it five times in a row really fast, but I&#8217;ll still eat it.  Cantaloupe.  Cantaloupe.  Cantaloupe.  Cantaloupe.  Cantaloupe.  Honeydew melons don&#8217;t have honey or bees in them, but I&#8217;ll still cut one open and eat out its greenish goodness.  Bananas are phallic, but I enjoy sticking a long one in my mouth. <\/p>\n<p>Raspberries are also big fat liars, because according to Wikipedia, <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Raspberry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">they aren&#8217;t even berries<\/a>.  How can I trust a fruit to give me delicious goodness when it&#8217;s totally not being honest to me?  Why can&#8217;t the raspberry be more truthful like an orange?  <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float:right;padding-left:10px;border:none;\" src=\"\/images\/fruitchillers2.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>An orange doesn&#8217;t lie, because an orange is orange.  The only way an orange wouldn&#8217;t be an orange was if an orange wasn&#8217;t orange.  So an orange would be lying if an orange wasn&#8217;t orange, but called itself an orange.<\/p>\n<p>Despite my disdain for raspberries, I actually did like the Del Monte Raspberry Fruit Chillers, which calls itself a frozen fruit sorbet.  However, just like raspberries, every Del Monte Raspberry Fruit Chillers is a liar because it calls itself &#8220;frozen,&#8221; but if you buy one at the store it won&#8217;t be frozen or even near the frozen food aisle.  It&#8217;s found with the canned fruits, which kind of makes sense since it&#8217;s made from 3\/4 servings of real fruit.  In order to get them frozen, they have to be stuck in a freezer overnight or spend a few days in the bosom of a cold-hearted bitch.<\/p>\n<p>Each package comes with four 4.5-ounce cups and each one of those has 100% of your daily Vitamin C and zero fat.  Its sweet and slightly tart taste is very good and it makes a nice snack to have on a hot summer day or a masochistic snack on a cold, snowy, and blustery evening outside with nothing but a g-string and a pair of Birkenstock sandals on.<\/p>\n<p><small>(Editor&#8217;s Note:  Thanks to Matt at Colburn Communication for sending me a free pack of Fruit Chillers, although I really wanted the strawberry or mango one.  Also, Lord Jezo at 78west <a href=\"http:\/\/www.78west.com\/wordpress\/?p=154\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">liked them as well<\/a>, but he tried the strawberry one.
