Picking Produce Part 2

The next thing to look at when picking fresh produce is to look at the color. Generally the stems of plants are green. The fruit should be the color that you expect it to be. For example, strawberries should be a deep red all the way to the stem. If you're looking at cut watermelon does it have a nice hot pink color or is it pale. Avoid the pale ones.

If the produce is lacking the vibrant color that is should have, chose something different.
