3.How to Pick
They come in many colors, so you can’t judge its ripeness that way. You’ll want to skip the ones that are visibly bruised or smell spoiled. Gently squeeze your mango. If you don’t plan to eat it soon, it should be firm. If you want to enjoy your mango in the next day or two, it should be slightly soft.
4.How to Store
If your mango is already ripe and you don’t plan to eat it right away, put it in the fridge to slow the process. To ripen a firm mango, store it in a cool, dark place — like your pantry — or in a bag on the counter. If your mango is cut, store it in the fridge to ward off bacteria that can cause food poisoning.
