How to Make a Really Good Fruit Salad

With fruit like cherries or strawberries, remove all stems, pits, and skins, if necessary, from the fruit before tossing it in the bowl. A fruit salad looks cleaner when every piece of fruit is prepped. If you cannot remove the pits or seeds, then warn your guests of any items that have something hard inside that is not visible. There's nothing worse than unknowingly biting into a grape that's full of bitter, tooth-breaking seeds.
