- You can choose cucumbers that are bright green, uniformly colored, and intact.

- Avoid cucumbers with bumps, yellow or white spots, that feel light and overly soft. Opt for cucumbers that are of moderate size, feel heavy when picked up, and have smooth skin.

How to choose fresh, ripe avocados
- Choose avocados with a small stem, even-colored skin, smooth texture, and no scratches.
