How to choose delicious sweet pineapples
- Color: the color of the body or stem of the pineapple determines its deliciousness, so you should choose fruits that have a bright yellow color from the stem to the tail. Remember, uniformly yellow pineapples will be sweeter.
- Shape: round and short pineapples will have more flesh than long cylindrical ones.
- Touch: fresh, delicious pineapples will not be too hard or too soft; if you press your finger into them, they should not feel indented.
- Pineapple eyes: the larger and sparser the eyes, the better.
- Pineapple crown: the greener the color, the fresher the pineapple. If the pineapple is overripe, the crown will be dry or turn brown.

How to choose fresh, delicious oranges
- Orange peel: Typically, a good orange has thin skin, which means it is juicy and sweet. If the orange has thick flesh, it indicates the fruit has less juice and is not tasty.
- Orange stem: Fresh oranges still have the stem; when you touch the stem, it feels firm, and it won’t fall off easily when you try to break it by hand. The leaves on the orange may still be fresh or wilted but should be attached to the stem.

How to choose good strawberries
- Color: Quality strawberries usually have a bright red color and are plump with juice. Do not buy strawberries with green spots as they will not continue to ripen once picked, unlike other fruits.
- Shape and size: Depending on the variety, strawberries can vary in shape and size. However, you should pay attention to those that are overly plump and excessively large, as they may be filled with water inside. Also, watch for unusual signs on the strawberries; if there are black spots, it means they are starting to rot.
- Leaf stem: You should choose strawberries that still have their stems and leaves intact. Particularly, if the distance between the leaf stem and the fruit is far apart, these will be very sweet strawberries.

How to choose sweet and juicy sugarcane
- The sugarcane must have a flexible texture and a uniform color throughout. This indicates that the sugarcane is soft, easy to extract juice from, has a high juice yield, and contains all the necessary nutrients and sugar content.
- The sugarcane should have few or no cracks; if there are many cracks, the sugarcane will be dry and lose its initial quality, resulting in an unreliable juice yield.
- The joints of the sugarcane must be even and long, as this will yield more juice than short-jointed sugarcane.
- After peeling the sugarcane, choose stalks that are neither too yellow nor too green. Green sugarcane is immature, not sweet, while overly yellow sugarcane is too mature, very sweet, and tough.
Note:
You can buy pre-pressed sugarcane juice or purchase whole sugarcane to press yourself. Pre-pressed juice will save you time, but if you press it yourself, you’ll get a higher quality sugarcane juice!
