How to tell if a Mango is ripe

• To check for ripeness, focus on FEEL not color because every variety is a different color when ripe. For example, yellow or red does not necessarily mean ripe.
• Squeeze gently to judge ripeness. A ripe mango will give slightly, indicating soft flesh inside.
• Use your experience with produce such as peaches or avocados, which also become softer as they ripen.
• Ripe Mangoes will sometimes have a fruity aroma at their stem ends.
