Peach

In Hollywood, the women are all peaches. It makes one long for an apple occasionally.
W. Somerset Maugham

Huge, soft, sweet, juicy and delicious and easy to eat when chopped up on Day 5 of dental recovery and almost zero activity.

The health benefits of peach are said to include helping healthy vision, skin care, nervous system, healthy bones, and teeth. It has anti-aging properties and also helps in detoxification, as well as improving digestion and cellular health. It has a wealth of essential nutrients and antioxidants. The scientific name Prunus persica, literally means “Persian plum”, and  derives from an early European belief that peaches were native to Persia (modern-day Iran). The Ancient Romans referred to the peach as malum persicum “Persian apple”, later becoming French pêche, hence the English “peach”.  (just fun facts.com)
