I have always loved Pears since I was a kid, but recently I've had a newfound adoration for Strawberries.

For fruit juices nothing beats the good ol' apple juice :)

I can’t believe you like pears. Who likes pears? A fresh ripe pear is still mealy, like grainy mushy. Like an apple that’s gone past it’s prime.

You're getting the wrong pears if they're mealy/grainy. I haven't seen the good pears in years, though. Everyone around me just carries those ugly brown ones that are like bags of sand inside 🤢

The good ones are green and have the same texture as an apple. But I don't know what the species/type name is.

Asian pears are typically not mealy

I would say asian pears are less mealy but still slightly gritty. In Korea, they say that asian pears are good for a congested throat, as the graininess is supposed to help clear your throat.
