as much as I love pineapple I'm going to go with apples as well. There are just so many ways you can prepare them and so man varieties of them they are such a great fruit.
Scurvy ran high primarily because people believed that vegetables were poisonous; vegetables like leafy greens and potatoes is where most of us get the overwhelming majority of vit C.If I was considering fruit that would keep for a long time, I would definitely pick apples. Sailors in centuries past carried barrels of apples because they can keep for a month or more. Unfortunately, apples aren't particularly nutritious, and completely lack vitamin C. For this reason, scurvy ran high on month-or-longer voyages.
Longan fruit
