THE BEST, ORIGINAL FRUIT SALAD

The Best, Original Fruit Salad image

This fruit salad has people very skeptical at first, but once you try it you'll love it! This is a judgement recipe; there's no right or wrong. Add other fruits as you please, just be careful with the mayo; you want it to taste of it barely.
