There’s nothing like eating delicious fruit when you’re hungry and need something that’s both sweet and healthy. It’s not always easy to find something that’ll both taste good and also make you feel good, which is why fruit is awesome to eat. But which fruit is the best? There are tons and tons of incredible fruits to eat, but right now we want to discuss why we think nectarines are the most underrated fruit around.

Always the Bridesmaid, Never the Bride

For some reason we get this vibe from nectarines that they’re always the bridesmaid, but never the bride. They taste so good, but they rarely get the spotlight in the same way that fellow fruits like apples and oranges do. If you don’t agree, run to the supermarket and see if you can find some nectarine juice. You likely won’t find any, but apple juice and orange juice will be there in hordes.

A Smoother Peach

We would argue that peaches are a tad more popular, but nectarines are essentially the same fruits as peaches, only smoother and less fuzzy. Nectarines truly are one of nature’s most delectable fruits and it’s unfortunate that they don’t often get as much praise.

It’s not that people don’t appreciate them. It’s that they don’t necessarily get the glory that we feel they deserve—which is why we think they’re underrated.
