It seems like your XSLT is trying to reproduce the original input instead of producing HTML output like you want.

Here's an example of one way to do it...

XML Input

<food>
    <fruit>Orange</fruit>
    isGood
    <fruit>Kiwi</fruit>
    isGood
    <fruit>Durian</fruit>
    isBad
</food>

XSLT 1.0

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
    <xsl:output indent="yes" method="html"/>
    <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>

    <xsl:template match="food">
        <html>
            <p><xsl:apply-templates/></p>
        </html>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="fruit">
        <i><xsl:value-of select="."/></i>
        <xsl:value-of select="concat(' ',normalize-space(following-sibling::text()),'. ')"/>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="text()"/>

</xsl:stylesheet>

HTML Output (raw)

<html>
   <p><i>Orange</i> isGood. <i>Kiwi</i> isGood. <i>Durian</i> isBad. 
   </p>
</html>

HTML Output (browser display)

Orange isGood. Kiwi isGood. Durian isBad.
