Last week we went over ways to preserve your produce, so this week I found this video that explains how to make sure and buy the right products in the first place. There are ways to tell which fruit or vegetable is the perfect ripeness, and I learned so much from this wonderful video tutorial by Jordan Page Fun, cheap, or Free, on YouTube. These tips in this video are absolutely invaluable, did you know that you can judge a pineapple by is small, its amount of yellowness, and the size of the little diamonds on the skin? Amazing stuff we are learning here!
This method of picking already boxed fruit made total sense to me, you look at the date of course, but always turn the container upsidedown to see if any of the strawberries, blueberries, etc. are smashed, juicy or moldy. One bad apple really will spoil the whole bunch here.
Then, you can always tell when an avocado is ripe by flicking of the top seed. If the seed comes off easily, you have the perfect avocado.

These tips are fabulous, I really don’t know how I shopped without them.
