In a bid to produce the most utterly pointless, yet compellingly readable post on the internet. I’ve searched Google for all the fruits I could think of and find at Tesco Online to produce the definitive list of “What is the most popular Fruit in the world”.
為了寫出世上最空洞、又最易讀的短文。我在谷歌上搜索了所有我能想到的，和能在特易購購物網找到的水果，并進行了統計。并寫出了下列權威“世界流行水果名單”。
Method:
說明：
These are based upon Google searches with just the fruits name, I used Google UK.
1、以下結論來自谷歌英國搜索引擎。搜索時我只使用水果本名。
I did consider typing for example “apple fruit” to discount all the many hits Google would return for Apple computers (and ipods) – but in the end I thought no, the fruits impact upon contemporary culture and industry is all part of the popularity rating.
2、在搜索有關蘋果的內容時，我本想輸入“蘋果 水果”，以避免搜索到蘋果電腦和iPod的相關信息，但最后，我仍然只輸入“蘋果”一詞。畢竟，水果對當代文化和制造業的影響也能反應水果受歡迎的程度。
All result are as of 19 July 2010, results can vary by region and time.
3、以下是2010年7月19日的搜索結果，搜索結果可能因地區和時間變化而改變。
Number 20 – The Pommegranate With 5,450,000
第20名受歡迎的水果：石榴（搜索到的相關信息共有5450000條）
Sneaking into the top 20, it’s the enigmatic and much underrated Pomegranate – guaranteed to make fruit noobs complain “WTF do I do with all the seeds? I wouldn’t take this from an Orange!”…I think you’re supposed to eat the seeds.
第二十名的水果竟然是神秘不起眼的石榴！水果菜鳥恐怕會抱怨：**，那么多籽吐都吐不完！我寧可吃橙子，也不吃這玩意……你是不是連籽一起吃啊？！
Number 19 – The Grapefruit With 8,430,000
第19名受歡迎的水果：西柚（搜索到的相關信息共有8430000條）
The fruit has become popular since the late 19th century; before that it was only grown as an ornamental plant. All I know is that I eat them about once a year for breakfast when I’m on a health-kick diet.
自19世紀以來，西柚就越來越受歡迎。在此以前，人們僅用西柚來裝飾房屋和花園。僅僅是為了健康，本人一年會吃一次西柚。
