Well the obvious answer which you already know is those which you like the most that the birds steal the most of.
I have no time or space for a fruit cage right now, but I notice the red currants are ransacked most by the birds but our black currants and gooseberries tend not to get attacked at all. I don't mind losing red currants as I prefer the others, I also planted strawberries under the bird feeders a few years ago for the birds and as ground cover.
Ive always understood fruit cages were for those fruit that you desperately want that the birds also take in large numbers.
