Apricots, bananas, cantaloupe, kiwi, nectarines, peaches, pears, plantains, plums continue to ripen after being picked. I'm sure there are more on the exotic fruit side.

Technically a tomato is a fruit and it too would continue to ripen after being picked.

The avocado is a fruit according to what i looked uo and it does ripen after picking-NB guacamole. It is known also as an "alligator pear" because of it's shape and skin colour and texture.

According to the package of Sweet Plantain Chips I bought today, Plantain is classified as a fruit when ripe, but when green it is considered a vegetable because of its low sugar content.
