Produce OASIS Tip of the Day

February 27 - How to Select a Pineapple:

Plucking leaves from the top of the pineapple does not indicate ripeness. It may indicate the leaves are old, but says nothing about the ripeness of the fruit. Once a pineapple is picked, it does not ripen any further.

OASIS has much more information on tropical fruits.
