As bepah mentioned, "most popular" is based on production and consumption, not on preference. If you were to go around and ask people what their favorite fruit is, you will probably get things like mango, apple, strawberries etc...however if you look at the per capita consumption, bananas might be the highest, and thus would be the "favorite" fruit of many people without them even realizing it.
