1. How to identify

1. Color: When purchasing the fruit of this type of plant, you can choose according to the color of the fruit peel. Under natural conditions, the color of mature fruit is dark green and a little black, while the skin of unripe fruit is bright green. The two are easy to distinguish because of their different colors.

2. Feel: The ripe fruit will be a little soft. It will dent when pinched but will return to its original shape. It is lighter in a mobile phone than the unripe ones. The unripe fruits are not soft and do not change, and they still have some weight in the hand.

3. Top: The top of the ripe fruit will have a natural crack. If you squeeze it, you will find that the juice will flow out. The unripe fruit has no crack on the top, so nothing will happen if you squeeze it with your hands.
