….According to Google.
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”.
Method:
- These are based upon Google searches with just the fruits name, I used Google UK.
- 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.
- All result are as of 19 July 2010, results can vary by region and time.
And so I give you the top 20, in reverse order. There are a few surprises.

Apocrypha and Erratum™ present the radical and cutting edge self improvement aide for the New Millennium …. Homeo-Didact ™
In the words of William Shakespeare there is “So much to learn, so little time…” but in today’s 24/7 world with our busy lifestyles there is less time than ever before!
Which is why you need to learn new skills anytime, anywhere and with no effort on your part …whatsoever!
- Whether revising for that all important exam;
- Aiming for that promotion that you so richly deserve;
- Or simply looking to improve your word power.
Use Homeo-Didact ™ and you can learn while you drink.
But how?
Well, as we know, many scientists agree that water is capable of retaining a “memory” of substances once dissolved in it to arbitrary dilution, and that shaking the water at each stage of a serial dilution will ensure that the putative therapeutic effect will occur. Indeed such is the proven power of the Science of HOMEOPATHY that startling results will be achieved despite not even a single molecule of the original substance remaining in the final preparation.
But how exactly does it work?
OK. Here comes the science bit
We have built up the world’s largest stock of homeopathic learning memory water.
Water, which we can guarantee does not contain a single molecule of the original works of James Joyce, Einstein, or the concise English Dictionary. In fact we can state quite categorically that it will contain not a single molecule of any major work ever produced.
Its purity, and therfore it’s efficacy, is guaranteed.
Simply drink the preparation and in no time at all you will be amazing your friends with the absolute confidence with which you speak on … any topic under the Sun.
But remember, stocks are limited and time is running out. So to avoid disappointment …
Order now, and order a lot!!
What People have said about Homeo-Didact ™?
“…… I find the entire concept to be totally unbelievable”, Stephen Fry
“…. Surely this can’t be true…”, Richard Dawkins.
“ ……… well, this has to be an absolute crock …. Of gold…..”, P.W. Botha
Remember order Homeo-Didact ™ today and drink you way to success.
….Possibly.

Don’t know where this originated, but I hope it’s real. It’s well worth a read.

Mystic Clegg
See the mysteries of the universe unfold under the strangely detached, sort of looking bravely into the future, gaze of the Deputy Prime Minister.
All your questions answered by … Mystic Clegg
Dear Mystic Clegg: I work on a Malaysian Rubber plantation. It’s my job to cut the trees and then tap the latex sap so it can be later collected …….. Please Mystic Clegg, can you tell me how deep the cuts should be?
Mystic Clegg writes: The mists are clearing. The mists are clearing. I see cuts. The cuts should be deep. This is the time for deep cuts, but not cuts so deep that the tree dies. Cut, as indeed you must, it is a time for cutting, but be like the wise gardener who cuts back in the knowledge that this provides the foundation for future growth.

So, the weeks of speculation are over and Chancellor George Osbourne has finally revealed the details of his Emergency Budget, one that he believes will prepare Britain for a “Brighter future” but which Harriet Harman has branded as “Reckless” and “Bad for Jobs”. They can’t both be right, so which one is? Now if we were Harry Hill we’d say “There’s only one way to find out…..” etc, etc. However, we at IWIAL take this particular issue very seriously – I certainly hope that the day is very far away when anyone would accuse us of trying to be funny – so we’ve decided to take this to the ordinary, everyday British people to see what they think.
So, exactly how will this budget affect the Poor Little Victorian Match Girl and Outrageously Archetypal Public School Twit in the street? IWIAL correspondent Dave asked Poppy ‘Iggins and Cholmondeley (AKA ‘Binky’) Fortescue-Smythe-Barrington-Tudor…The Third.
