Grilled, however, works, at least with peaches and pineapple...

Subject: Re: [NAFEX] smoked fruits?

I don't think smoked fruits would be very good.  It makes me think of the 
time I found ants in the food box on a camping trip and put several items 
next to a smoky fire to drive the ants away.  The summer sausage was 
improved, while the fruit and nut bar became nearly inedible.  That same 
trip (to last year's Nafex meeting) we stopped to see friends who had some 
chips left over from THEIR camping trip in which they had recrisped them in 
damp weather over a fire, and nobody could stand to eat them after that. 
That said, there are probably a few types of fruit that would be ok smoked.
