How can I tell if a tomato is ripe?
assistant
You can tell if a tomato is ripe by looking at the color of the skin and the feel of the tomato. A ripe tomato should be slightly soft to the touch, with no hard spots. The color of the tomato should also be uniform and vibrant. If you are unsure about the ripeness of the tomato, you can cut it open and check for any signs of spoilage.
