The fruit shop owner does not tell the secret, the fruit should be selected in this way.

"Boss, this apple looks a little mottled, isn't it too fresh?" I asked the fruit shop owner, confused.

The boss replied with a smile: "You don't understand this, in fact, there is a lot of knowledge in the selection of fruits." ”

As soon as I heard this, I immediately became interested: "Then you can teach me, I will rely on you to choose fruits in the future." ”

The owner nodded yes and began to teach me the secret of fruit selection.

"First of all, look at the color of the fruit. The boss picked up an apple and said, "Like this apple, although the surface is a little mottled, the color is bright, which means that it is naturally ripe and will taste better." ”

I nodded in understanding.

Then the boss told me the second secret, which was to smell the fruit.

"Ripe fruit will have a strong fruity aroma, and if it smells sour or musty, it may have gone bad. The boss said.

I sniffed the apple in my hand, and sure enough, there was a rich fruity aroma.

Then, the boss told me the third secret, which is to feel the firmness of the fruit.

"Like this apple, it's hard to the touch, which means it's fresh and well-hydrated. The boss said.

I tried it again, and sure enough, it felt good.

Next, the boss told me the fourth secret, which is to check the skin of the fruit.

"Fruits with smooth skin, disease-free spots and moth-eaten fruits are fresher. The boss said.

I took a closer look at the apple in my hand and it did meet this criterion.

Then, the boss told me the fifth secret, which was to listen to the sound of fruit.

"Like this apple, it has a crisp sound when struck, indicating that it is ripe. The boss said.

I tapped the apple lightly, and sure enough, the sound was crisp.

Then, the boss told me the sixth secret, which is to compare the weight of fruits.

"Fruits with heavier weights tend to have more moisture and a better taste. The boss said.

I compared a few apples, and sure enough, the heavier ones tasted better.

Finally, the owner told me the seventh secret, which is to look at the shape of the fruit.

"Fruits that are evenly shaped and have no deformities usually taste better. The boss said.

I looked at the apple in my hand, and sure enough, it was evenly shaped.

After listening to the boss's explanation, I deeply felt that I was really a layman in the way I used to choose fruits. From now on, I will definitely keep these secrets in mind and pick the best quality fruits.
