1 byte saved thanks to msb's comment which made me realise I was sorting the fruit by string length (which measures characters instead of bytes, making fruits with diacritics seem shorter than they really are).

This works by representing berry, (including the comma) as B (with no comma). This means that every fruit that ends in "berry" can effectively save 5 bytes. It turns out there are enough berries to make the 22 byte cost of replace worthwhile.

This is the 55 shortest fruits measuring length after substituting "berry," with "B". I generated the code using this code:

My initial failed attempts

Before I found this approach I tried shortening the other two Python 3 answers, but in both cases my misguided efforts only made the code longer...

Trying to shorten steffan153's answer

I noticed that some of the fruits had diacritics, which makes them longer in bytes than they appear, so instead of just using the 55 shortest fruit by characters, I used the 55 shortest fruit after throwing away any fruit with diacritics, like gấc and açaí. However, since we've already used up all of the fruit of length 5 bytes or less, each diacritic fruit removed brings in another 6 byte fruit, so the total length of the code went up by a byte:

print('fig abiu bael date lime lulo neem noni pear pili plum rimu sloe sorb yuzu ackee akebi apple araza cacao caqui carob etrog grape guava ilama jagua kokum kubal lemon mango melon mundu musho nance ooray peach pequi pluot prune pudau rowan rukam salak salal tapia terap tilap toyon wongi almond babaco bacuri banana bignay')

Trying to shorten Moshi's answer

I thought I could save some bytes by using fewer distinct characters in the list of fruits, since all of these need to be listed in the while loop that extracts the data. So I repeatedly found the letter present in fewest fruits, and discarded all fruits containing that letter, stopping short of ending up with fewer than 55 fruits remaining. This left me with only 14 distinct characters, down from 16 in the original code. However, the 2 bytes this saved were overwhelmed by the fact that the new list of 55 fruits contained longer fruits, since I'd discarded some of the shorter ones, leaving the code 14 bytes longer:

from base64 import*
n=int.from_bytes(b85decode('5YBr@2zdh)fdaH`|L?o31mzCMMOw^}6Gp}*cGPdkWp!!fj9sk(ll2zIiI9x(m!Z#)4FT|UW1Q!@&rHc#p7PfklqbhsG`5TO^jF^L@qmX-@zKRADY>W*()(`#6^w=;IP9xHTgMq6GED;7>E#S9WNiB|2eKZ!HJ!qD(`e}qPwt+~b^KgJISyhSv!lv?ba68XFLI3{>}kf^>gaG928Ym{URfadB71USJH9{@PJ;Ya'),'big')
while n:print(end="ambling poetry"[n%14]);n//=14

In hindsight I have no idea why I thought either of my initial approaches would work.

Originally, I was going to use zlib, but trying to use the encoded result as a literal gave a lot of issues, so I decided to use base85 instead. There are probably some optimizations I missed since I don't really do Python often enough.

Just a compressed string, decompressed by the backtick at the beginning, that uses space as a delimiter.

Test it
(or view the list sorted, with newline as a delimiter here)

How I came by it

1. Remove fruits containing Unicode characters.
2. Remove fruits containing spaces.
3. Remove "rimu", because it contains a \ when compressed.
4. Sort by compressed length.
5. Get first 55, as an array.
6. Run that array through my interpreter's built-in compressor.
7. Manually replace the last fruit in the compressed string ("ilama") with the manually compressed string "rimu".

I used a similar Vyxal program linked in my Vyxal answer, but instead of checking for the shortest dictionary compression, just looked for the 55 shortest fruits.

It simply checks for fruits with no Unicode characters, and then finds the 55 fruits with the shortest dictionary compression.
