Sick of wasting your money on fruit that doesn’t taste good? ME TOO! So here are the best ways to pick your fruits to ensure excellent taste and the most antioxidants. Picking fruit can be deceptive sometimes. Most look for color, fullness, and the texture of the fruit. However, fruits such as  apricots, peaches, nectarines, blueberries, cantaloupe, and honeydew all get their sweetness from the sap of the plant. So looking for these things doesn’t mean you are going to get a great tasting piece of fruit.

While some fruits have the ability to continue ripening on your counter-tops, other stop maturing after they have been picked. These fruits include, soft berries, cherries, citrus, watermelon, pineapple, and grapes. If you try them in the store and they aren’t ripe then they won’t be any better in a couple of days.

Your taste buds form your sensitivities to foods - what foods you like, what foods you dislike, and sometimes how much you consume. Originally, it was thought that the human tongue only had 5 senses; sweet, bitter, salty, sour and umami (a taste that identifies foods rich in protein). However, researches from the University of Adelaide, CSIRO, and Massey University (New Zealand) have identified the SIXTH sense which is the sensitivity to fat. This sense could also predetermine your ability to lose weight and keep weight off.

Researchers studied a variety of people and their “threshold for” fat. They used various fatty acids and tested their sensitivity levels.  As a result, they found that some people had a high threshold, while others did not.  Looking even deeper into the study, they then compared the BMI’s of each group. People who could taste fat more readily had lower BMI’s.
