Does Salinas CA have the best fruit in the world?

No, Salinas, CA does not have the best fruit in the world but it is an excellent place to find lettuce (they invented iceberg lettuce there and bagged salad) as well as orchids and chardonnay grapes for wine production. No place can claim the title for best fruit simply because different types of fruits grow better in different climates.

Salinas, CA doesn't grow fruit - mostly it grows lettuce and other leaf vegetables.
