How to choose fresh tangerines
- Choose tangerines with fresh skin, evenly yellow color, and when pressed lightly, oil should come out, with the stem slightly indented compared to the surrounding area.
- Fresh and delicious tangerines will have a round shape, feel firm in hand, and when squeezed lightly, they should be moderately soft, not too hard, indicating they can be selected for purchase.
- Avoid choosing tangerines with blotchy skin colors, too pale yellow, or still green, as these are often sour tangerines.

- Choose a bunch of bananas that are not uniformly colored (some yellow, some green), with dark or deep pink spots.
- Ripe bananas will have a fragrant smell and natural sweet taste, evenly soft, and both the stem and body should be yellow.
- Avoid choosing bunches of bananas that are all uniformly ripe and have a deep yellow skin, as these may have been treated with chemicals.

How to choose fresh and delicious pineapple
- Based on color: You should choose fruits that have a striking yellow color, sometimes mixed with green. Avoid buying fruits that are unevenly ripe, especially those that have turned brown as they are overripe and likely to spoil.
- Based on shape: Fruits that are short and round usually have more flesh compared to those that are elongated. Choose pineapples with larger eyes as they are naturally ripe and will not lose much flesh when peeled.
- Based on aroma: Fruits with a sweet, not too strong smell are those that are perfectly ripe and ready to eat. If you detect a very strong smell, those are overripe fruits, prone to spoilage and natural fermentation.
- Based on touch: A perfectly ripe pineapple will have slightly wrinkled skin, and pressing it will reveal a moderately soft texture. If it feels hard and heavy, those are unripe pineapples.

How to choose fresh and delicious watermelon
- Sweet red watermelon is typically a mature fruit with a small, slightly dry stem. In contrast, young watermelon is harvested quite early, so the stem is still fresh and green and has not shrunk.
- Moreover, good quality watermelons look round and shiny on the outside, especially with clear black stripes, not too dull, and the bottom will have a yellow or cream color while being deeply indented.
- If there are brown spots or puncture marks on the surface, and when you slap it, it makes a “thump, thump” sound, these are all signs that the watermelon is good.
- Avoid choosing fruits that feel soft and mushy when pressed; this indicates that they have been stored for a long time and will not taste good.

- You should choose carrots that are straight, have a bright orange-yellow color, smooth skin, look shiny, and are not rough, with fresh tops, as they indicate good quality carrots.
- When held, they should feel heavy, firm, and not soft, indicating fresh and crunchy carrots.
- Avoid choosing carrots with tiny spots on the body, bushy leaves at the base, and thick, bulky shoulders, as these often indicate carrots that are less sweet and have fewer nutrients.
