Hi Molly,
if you're going superhero your personal superherofoods pretty much depend on where you live and how you feel eating different foods. The macrobiotic diet is different for every person. But a good guideline is going with the seasons. In winter I wouldn't even think about having a big fruitsalad, because it's cold here and I need something warm. Although in summer when most of the fruit is in season and it's really hot outside a fruitsalad is the perfect meal to cool you down. So during autumn and winter I eat more veggies and don't have fruit every day, and if I have any, it's usually an apple or some dried fruit with my oatmeal. Your body needs different things throughout the year. Personally I can say, that going with the seasons is not only cheaper (and better for the environment, cause the fruit n veg is locally grown), but I desire certain foods differently throughout the year. Also I feel like -now off sugar- fruit is very sweet and I don't feel too well after having any. So listening to your very personal needs is key! If you have a sweet tooth (or due to school/workinghours have to rely on snackfoods) it's obviously better to have fruit as snacks than unhealthy stuff ;)
Long story short: try different things to see what's working for you! And most importantly: enjoy living healthy ;)
