Because it would be fun.

Or maybe I'd be blackberries, because they're thorny and good with duck.

Sweet, tart and kind of prickly.

You stole my line.

For the same reasons, actually!

creamy, unexpected, and good for your belly

Tonight I am definitely a quenepa. Because they're just luscious.

Because people are frequently lumping me into the wrong category

Honeycrisp Apple -- I hold the apple high above all other fruits and the Honeycrisp is the Platonic Ideal of apples and thus of all fruit. If I have to be a foodstuff, I want to be what I'd most want to eat.

I used to think Fujis were the best kind of apple: tart, crisp, firm, long lasting but this year the Honeycrisps are just awesome. Fujis may have share a place in my heart.

It may console you to know that they're cousins, both descended from the Gala ...

fabulous?

You mean I'm not?

Unusual tasting, a bit seedy, kinda odd looking, but absolutely delicious in the right context.

This reminds me of a game that Molly's college girlfriend taught us one time when estheruth and I were visiting. Best played with a group of people who each know most of the others pretty well. Whoever's turn it is thinks of someone else, but doesn't tell anyone. Once they indicate that they've chosen, you go around the circle and each person gets to ask a question, then make a guess, until someone guesses who it is. All the questions have to be of a form similar to your question here, except in third person. So, "if this person were a fruit, what kind of fruit would they be?" etc. Question by question, you start to learn what sort of X, Y, and Z this person is, until someone guesses correctly, and then it's their turn to pick someone.
