This will never get done in 30 days without charging through large categories of food. So I'm adding "every fruit" for the next couple of days. There are so many good ones!
I've been playing a game on my phone called "Stop", where you have to think of a variety of things that start with a certain letter. One category is fruits and vegetables. So I can think of lots of fruit off the top of my head (some that I've already included, of course): Apples, Bananas, Cherries, Durian (OK - Not sure I recommend this one... maybe Date is better), Elderberry, Fig, Grape, Honeydew, Kiwi, Lemon, Mango, Nectarine, Orange, Pear/Pineapple/Peach, Quince, Raspberry, Strawberry, Tomato (Technically...), Ugli, Watermelon, Yucca
The point is, there are SO many items to choose from here. It would be nice to try one new thing each day. Figs and dates are good ones, because they'll taste especially sweet if you haven't had sugar for a while.
When you first re-introduce something to your diet, try imagining that you are really trying it for the first time. There may be some fruits that you actually haven't had before, so that would be easy. In any case, try to maintain a sense of openness to the experience. It would be wonderful if we could do this with all the moments in our lives, but since that's a fairly daunting task, better to simply start with a piece of mango and see where that takes you.
