How do you eat a pear? Do you eat the whole thing and just leave the little stalk?

Do you eat it like an apple, or some other fantastical way which I cannot envisage?

How do you eat a pear? Do you eat the whole thing and just leave the little stalk?
For me, it depends on the variety (stop buying fruit in the supermarket - you'll only get the tasteless varieties, delivered unripe).





Conference are usually rock hard so I don't eat the core - but Comice, oh juicy juicy, a ripe Comice you have to eat in the bath, so I eat the whole thing, core and all.

Reply:I eat it like an apple sometimes. Other times I cut it up and eat it in pieces.

Reply:You mean you've never eaten a pear.?


Wow that is odd.....Just eat like an apple and throw the core away.... R U Serious.?
Reply:I eat them as a piece or cut them into pieces. I know some people eat them as a whole even the core and the seeds for nutritional purposes. I know that the seeds etc provides nutritional values in some way but I just find it really weird to eat them as a whole... =)
Reply:yeah just like an apple. You leave the core. I usually eat apples and pears with a little knife and cut little pieces off. Some reason they taste better than just bitting into it. Yo know how a banana tstes different if it is mashed? Same thing, but heaps better when you eat it with a knife. You should try it sometime.
