Ripe and Ready: Your No-Touch Guide to Fruit Selection

Observe the surrounding fruits in the display. Often, the way a fruit is presented can offer insights into its ripeness. If a batch of fruit appears consistently uniform in color and size, it's more likely that they are all at a similar stage of maturity. Conversely, a display with a wide variation in appearance might suggest a mix of ripeness levels. While this is not a direct indicator of a specific fruit's ripeness, it can provide a general context for your selection.
