How to tell if an avocado is bad (with selection tips)

1. The basis for the damage

1. Appearance: The normal surface should be rough and covered with small bumps. If the outside of the fruit is very flat and feels smooth to the touch, it may be a diseased fruit.

2. Fruit stalk: Pull out the fruit stalk and look at the joint. If the color is very dark brown, it means that the inside is rotten and cannot be eaten.

3. Feel: If you suspect the fruit may be rotten, you can pinch it to confirm. Pinch the fruit with your hand. If it feels very soft, a bit like mud, it may be rotten inside.

2. Selection Method

1. Time: August to September is the time when they mature and go on the market. It is best to choose and buy them during this period to ensure that the fruit tastes the best.

2. Color: Choose those with dark or black outer color. If the outer color is green, it means it is not ripe yet and cannot be eaten immediately after purchase.

3. Elasticity: You can press it lightly with your fingers. If the outside of the fruit is elastic and bounces back, it means it is a ripe fruit. If it doesn't give way when pressed, it means the fruit is still raw; if it doesn't give way when pressed, it means the fruit is overripe.
