Your sense of taste and scale will likely change over time. A piece of fruit here and there is probably fine at some point, even the occasional gorge on apples and getting the "green apple squits" I guess

I have a damaged liver so I'm avoiding fruit vigorusly and bite my lip when I can when people ask why I don't want some and say it's "healthy" - Fruit didn't do the damage for me but my liver needs a break - what's left of it is too busy making fatty acids that I can use.
