Apples will soon be on the market in large quantities. Qixia Red Fuji apples are deeply loved by people because of their moderate sweetness and sourness, crispness and deliciousness. Therefore, there are many fake apples pretending to be Qixia Red Fuji. In order to let everyone buy and eat real Qixia Red Fuji apples, based on my family’s experience, I summarized the following methods for identifying Qixia Red Fuji apples:

1. Identify the color. The color of "Red Fuji" is red, and the shade of red varies depending on the degree of ripeness. However, since "Red Banana" and "Red Star" are both red, it is not possible to determine whether it is "Red Fuji" just by looking at the color. .

2. Observe shapes. This is the key to distinguishing true and false "Red Fuji". The fruit shape of "Red Fuji" is round or oval, with the upper and lower planes about the same size, with no or small slopes on both sides, and no protruding edges at the navel at the top; while the fruit shapes of "Red Banana" and "Red Star" are It is inverted cone shape, that is, it is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom, with larger slopes on both sides, and a small protruding angle at the navel at the top.

3. Touch the skin. The peel of "Red Fuji" is smoother to the touch than "Red Banana", "Red Star", etc.

4. Taste. "Red Fuji" contains more water and tastes sweet and crisp; while "Red Banana" and "Red Star" have a soft texture and have a soft texture.

5. Calculate the time. "Red Fuji" is a late-maturing variety and is launched late in the market. It will not mature until after late October. Prior to this, although there were a small number of early-maturing "Red Fuji" on the market, the number was extremely limited. ?

In addition:

Look at the bottom - the bottom of the red Fuji apple is relatively flat; the bottom of the Qinguan apple is pointed. ?

Look at the skin color - Red Fuji apples are light red in color with small white spots on them; Qinguan apples are redder and darker in color, with more small white spots on the skin than Red Fuji apples. Slightly thin, not astringent; Qinguan or other apples have shiny skin and are thicker. ?

Look at the shape - Red Fuji apples are round, with the upper and lower parts about the same size, while other apples, such as Qinguan apples and New Red Star apples, are larger at the top and smaller at the bottom, like bell peppers.
