Instructions
Step 1
Watermelon
Choosing the right watermelon is a whole art, many videos have been shot about this and instructions have been written. There are some simple rules. First, pay attention to the stem (tail), it should be slightly dried, but not completely dried. If the tail is missing, it is better not to take such a watermelon. A yellowish spot on the side is a good sign. Experts determine the quality of a watermelon by its sound; it must be sonorous.
It is highly discouraged to buy watermelons before the end of August, as they may contain a large amount of chemicals.
Step 2
Melon
The first sign of a good ripe melon is its aroma, which is felt right through the skin. The peel itself should be rough. Carefully "examine" the melon, there should be no dents or dark spots on it. The stalk should also be slightly dry.
Step 3
Grapes
The twigs should be green, not dry or brown. The berries do not fall off, not too soft. In order not to buy unripe sour grapes, note that ripe grapes have characteristic brownish specks on the berries.
Step 4
Plum
Try to choose berries with stalks, which means that the berries were picked from the tree, not from the ground. The plum should have a characteristic bloom. Squeeze the berry lightly with your fingers, it should be firm, not too soft, but not hard either.
Step 5
Bananas
The fruit should be even, not ribbed. The color of the skin is bright yellow. If you bought greenish bananas, then they should lie down at home until they ripen. It is permissible to buy fruit with black dots, but do not confuse them with black spots. Often ripe bananas fall off the stalk, you should not take them.
