Every year around September, it is also the season when the grapes are ripe. So, do you know the past and present of grapes?

Grapes are rich in vitamins and have high nutritional value. Recently, due to the popularity of beauty and anti-aging topics, more and more people like to eat grapes. But when choosing grapes, have you noticed that some grapes grow a little special, there are two kinds of them that need everyone to be vigilant about:
The first type: there are small protrusions on the surface of the grapes.
The surface of some grapes is not very smooth, it will always have some small pimple-like protrusions, giving people the feeling of thorns all over the body, everyone should be vigilant when encountering such grapes.
The second type: grapes with black spots.
If the color of the purchased grapes is green or rose red and other lighter colors, you will find some black spots on its surface, which looks unsightly. Such grapes also need attention.
In fact, there are various reasons for the formation of these two kinds of grapes, many of which are caused by pathogenic bacteria or scale insects. They will parasitize on the surface of grape skins. When people eat grapes, they will inevitably eat them by mistake.
So what kind of grapes should we choose? Today, we have summed up four classic methods of picking grapes. The grapes selected in this way are fresh, delicious, and healthy. Hope they will be useful to everyone.
First: look at the skin. Grapes with darker colors and hoarfrost on the surface are good grapes. Because the color of naturally ripe grapes looks darker than that of unripe grapes, and the natural formation on the surface of grapes shows that the grapes we buy have not been treated with pesticides, which is just a sign of safety and health.
Second: Look at the grapes to check if they are plump and smooth. Good grapes always give people the feeling of a lot of grapes and a tight structure. In particular, many people like that each grape grain is next to the other, not only the structure is tight, but also the skin is very smooth and beautiful. This means that we have bought fully ripe and healthy grapes.
Third: If you want to taste, taste the bottom one of the whole bunch of grapes. Now many fruit shops can taste it. If we have the opportunity to taste a grape, we should try the bottom one, because if the grape is very sweet, it usually means that the whole bunch of grapes is very sweet. After all, among the whole bunch of grapes, it is the one that receives the least photosynthesis and lacks the most nutrients.
Fourth: Check the grape stem to see if it is newly picked. If the grape stalks feel green and fresh, you can see that the water is very sufficient from the cut surface, and the grape will feel very firm when pinched, which means that the grapes have just been picked. On the contrary, if the grape stems give people a limp and wilted appearance, it means that it has been picked for a long time.
