Kiwis can be, too. Watermelon is easy but a PITA. Pineapples don't bother me at all.</p> <p>Maybe I will get one of those splitters.

He's never complained, so I didn't even know it was difficult! He grew up in a tropical country with mango/ banana/ coconut trees and used to climb the trees to get the fruit, so he's been cutting them his whole life. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-fruit-do-you-dislike-cutting-up-the-most/page/2#post-2742525 Wed, 31 May 2017 21:58:42 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2742525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just cut my finger on watermelon so I vote that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-fruit-do-you-dislike-cutting-up-the-most/page/2#post-2742522 Wed, 31 May 2017 21:41:57 +0000 travellingbee 2742522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@delight: :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-fruit-do-you-dislike-cutting-up-the-most/page/2#post-2742520 Wed, 31 May 2017 21:38:48 +0000 delight 2742520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: lol I didn't even realize it was an ancient thread when I responded. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-fruit-do-you-dislike-cutting-up-the-most/page/2#post-2742517 Wed, 31 May 2017 21:24:20 +0000 travellingbee 2742517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha ha! What an old thread! The fruit I never buy, because I hate cutting it:<br /> Pineapple (I'll buy precut)<br /> Mango (precut from Trader Joe's is the best!)<br /> Cherries<br /> Plums </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-fruit-do-you-dislike-cutting-up-the-most/page/2#post-2742074 Wed, 31 May 2017 09:23:32 +0000 delight 2742074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely mango. Pineapple is annoying too but I have a little tool that cores it and cuts it into slices which makes life way easier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-fruit-do-you-dislike-cutting-up-the-most/page/2#post-2742039 Wed, 31 May 2017 08:40:00 +0000 Swetee 2742039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Avocado.
