“Stone Fruits” – Fancy Term, Delicious Meaning!
Don’t let the name fool you—you’ve definitely eaten these! “Stone fruits” (also called drupes) simply mean fruits with a big, hard pit inside, like peaches, plums, cherries, and mangoes. That “stone” in the center protects the seed, but for us? It’s just nature’s way of saying “savor the juicy goodness around me!”
(Fun fact: Even almonds are technically stone fruits… but we’ll stick to the sweet ones!)
