I really hate cantaloupe. It makes me gag.
I was told that it's like cilantro, in which some people genetically taste a different flavor from others when eating it (they think it tastes like soap). Cantaloupe apparently doesn't have sweetness for some people, like me, so all we taste are the other notes. Well those other notes are gross.

Yup. I want to like them - what a fun name! - but they really taste awful
Kiwis are pretty nasty
Pears are only grainy when they aren't ripe yet. Ripe, juicy pears are fucking amazing.
Also, what's with all the cantaloupe and honeydew hate in this thread? They're great! (You need a bit of luck when buying them, I admit that. Some can be kinda watery and bland. But the good ones are really good)

Dragonfruit is my most disappointing. There's a huge disparity between how awesome it looks and how bland it actually tastes.
Yeah. Would've been grapefruit until a few years ago, but I can tolerate that now.
They can be good, but yeah more often than not are underwhelming.
They also smell like cum.
I eat bananas for the potassium. I was told it helps with muscles seizing up (Charlie horse). I hate them though. They stink and they are usually just sweet. No tang to them. No citrus bite. Never trust a person that seems out the banana Runts.
I used to feel the same way. I don't know why my opinion changed. I was making a smoothie and ate a couple of slices while I was throwing it into the blender. I haven't eaten a pear in probably 15 to 20 years or more. The stuff I used to hate was actually ok. It had a kinda course texture and a mild sweetness. Not overly sweet like some apples. And it was firm. I used to hate them hence my not touching them in years, but now I'm not sure.
I... have never had a durian. I've had almost everything else mentioned (don't think I've had kumquat either), and after a little research I might have to upgrade cantaloupe from its low status. Google is showing me that durian might have been put on the planet to punish humanity.
Now on a mission to try a durian.

Grocery store fruit is a crap shoot. Grocery store fruit is a lesser version of garden/farm fresh. Fruit I thought I disliked turns amazing if you eat it ripened in a garden and not in a shipping box.
The delicious bitter taste. How do people feel about eating a lemon or lime like it is an orange?
Watermelon is a flavourless mess.
Durian. I'm also not the biggest fan of figs.
Regarding all of the "melon has no taste" comments... didn't check everyone's profile, but since a good chunk of this board lives in the US, I'll have to say that on average the fruit I ate when I lived in the US had less flavor than what I've had living in Europe and Japan. Certainly melons, but also other fruit such as strawberries, apples, grapes, etc. They felt a lot more watery in the US.
