But let's see. Currently, I have bananas, apples, apricots, a few raspberries, and tomatoes as well. I'm kind of limited by what is not too expensive in this season (raspberries are, but hum, I love them all the same so I make an exception). On the other hand, you won't ever see canned fruits in my home. Just the smell of the juice in those cans makes me gag. :| I don’t have an actual bowl for fruits yet (it’s in the works though), so I’m afraid a picture wouldn’t look too great right now.

Don't eat dried fruit more than a few times a week -- good rule of thumb. Canned fruits and veggies aren't the best - they retain freshness for several months up to a year, but I'm not keen on recommending anything sitting around in aluminum and preserved with additives or salt. Still, canned produce is better than processed junk. I don't recommend canned beans - you can buy dried beans, soak and cook overnight, and save a LOT of money.

In fact, many retain better freshness than the "fresh" counterparts in the produce section of your market. Blueberries, broccoli and brussels sprouts hold up particularly well. And let's not forget peas... Most frozen vegetables do keep their nutritional value quite well.

Canned lose their nutrition and dried have a lot of sugar. They are good, but fresh is a lot better. But frozen is cheap and actually a fresher a lot of times.
