2. Shape
When buying orange, we often see slightly oval oranges, round oranges, plump oranges, and slightly wrinkled and rough oranges. If you want to eat delicious oranges, choose round oranges because they will be juicy and sweet.
3. Feel by hand
It’s advisable to hold the orange with your hands to feel its weight because a large fruit is not necessarily heavy. It may have a lot of peel and dry segments.
If you feel it is heavy, it is fresh and juicy. Meanwhile, if it feels light, it means that the orange has been picked a long time ago and stored for a long time, and is not delicious.
Additionally, holding the fruit helps you to feel the softness or hardness of the orange. Fresh and ripe oranges have elasticity when you pinch them; if it is difficult to pinch, the fruit has a thick skin and is not delicious.
