How can I tell if a fruit is ripe or not?
assistant
The best way to tell if a fruit is ripe or not is by looking at it. If the skin of the fruit appears to be soft and wrinkled, then it is likely that the fruit is ripe. You can also check for color changes in the fruit, such as a deepening of the color or a change from green to yellow. Finally, give the fruit a gentle squeeze - if it yields slightly to your touch, it's probably ready to eat.
