About This Quiz

Fruit and love have a very long and interesting history together. Numerous metaphors link the two together--Elvis Presley once sang that love is a banana peel that caused him to fall head over heels. Mother Theresa said, "Love is a fruit, in season at all times and within the reach of every hand." Passionfruit, though originally named for the passion of Jesus, is inextricably now linked to the more romantic kind of passion, while fruits like strawberries, cherries and figs are considered aphrodisiacs that can inspire love or make it feel more intense and vibrant. There's no doubt about it; love can be a pretty fruity thing if you want it to be.  And why wouldn't you? Fruit is delicious, and it's good for you, too, just like love.

There are fruits for all different tastes and occasions and, when you think about it, that's kind of the same as love. Your love isn't the same from one person tt he next, and the way other people love you is different as well. Some are full of passion but fleeting, others are kind of sweet and low key. If you're not sure where your love ranks on the fruit scale, worry not! We can help. Just take the quiz and see!
