A character has a piece of fruit. There is no reason for him to have the fruit; he just does. Often, he is an eccentric character and will pull out the fruit whenever the moment is quite tense.

Often makes use of a Fundamentally Funny Fruit. Compare The Snack Is More Interesting. Examples of Fruit of the Loon include:
