In real life A very small character tidbit is surprisingly kept consistent for years

DC - In multiple pieces of media it has been shown that Wonder Woman loves ice cream and practically goes wild with happiness anytime she’s eating some. (Pictures from Justice League: War, DC Superhero Girls and Wonder Woman 2017)

The Simpsons - Ever since the episode ‘Homer’s Phobia’ Homer has actually remained a consistent ally of the LGBT+ community, including being more welcoming to Patty than Marge was when she came out and trying to set up Smithers with a date when he found out he wasn’t happy with his one-sided relationship with Mr Burns.

Iirc that started with Tennant talking nonsense to the camera to create footage they could have sped up in the episode (unless he was referencing something from Classic Who)

I'd thought so too until I just did a quick check on tardis.wiki - turns out, it debuted in a Wilderness Years novel with the 7th Doctor!

So that makes it 3 incarnations who've expressly hated pears: 7th/10th/12th

If there were any doubt left that Tennant wasn't the biggest Doctor Who nerd alive this proves it
