[quote=Anonymous]The reason is that they pick the fruit green, and it ripens it storage when it arrives. If picked at the right time, this mostly works, but if picked too soon it will never ripen properly. But it is much easier to pick something too soon when it is hard and won't bruise then it is to pick it on time when it will rot before it can be sold. And sometimes the stars just don't align. I bought apples from a local farm and they were mealy. I asked why, and the farmer said that variety just had a bad year, and he replaced them with another variety that were tasty.[/quote]
