How to choose delicious tomatoes
- Ripe tomatoes have a taut, plump skin and a bright red color. If you look closely, you’ll see specks of glimmer in the flesh through the skin. When you cut the tomato, the inside will be bright red, with pulp and white seeds.
- Choose firm tomatoes; avoid those that are soft as they spoil very quickly.
- If the stem of the tomato is fresh green and tightly attached to the fruit, it means the tomato is naturally ripe.
- Compared to naturally ripe tomatoes, chemically treated tomatoes usually lack fragrance, are not red, and are quite firm. When cooked, they take a long time to soften, have little pulp, and a pale red color.

How to choose good beef
- Good beef has a bright red color, fat that is bright yellow, and white tendons.
- Choose small, tender pieces of meat that are not too smooth.
- When pressing the meat with your hand, if it has good elasticity, does not stick to your hand, and has no unpleasant smell, then it is good meat.
- You should buy female beef because female beef is usually tastier than male beef.
- For brisket, choose the part that has some tendons mixed in.
How to choose good and safe smoked meat
- You should buy meat from reputable food stores or supermarkets.
- Check the expiration date on the smoked meat package carefully, and also ensure that the package is intact and not torn.
- If you smell fresh meat, it indicates that the meat is not spoiled. Conversely, if you smell sour, rotten, or unpleasant odors, the meat is definitely spoiled.
- Good smoked meat will have a bright pink color mixed with white fat.
- Do not buy pieces of meat that have green spots, have been thawed, or have turned brownish-gray.
- You should choose the meat that feels dry and not sticky when touched; however, remember to wash your hands thoroughly after touching the meat to avoid bacteria sticking to it!
