How to distinguish the authenticity of Dianjiang white pomelo?

?

When selecting pomelos, the first step is to master the general principle of "not falling". The standard shape of pomelos is pointed at the top and wide at the bottom, and it is better to choose pomelos that are flat, round, and have a short neck (preferably flat at the bottom). This is because pomelos with long necks have less flesh and appear to have more skin. Secondly, high-quality pomelos can also be selected from aspects such as visual perception, specific gravity, and tactile sensation. If the grapefruit peel is fine and clean, the surface oil cells are semi transparent, and the color appears light yellow or orange yellow, it indicates that the grapefruit has high maturity, juicy and sweet taste. For pomelos of the same size, choose those with heavier portions. When pressing hard, if it is not easy to press, it indicates that the bag is tight and of good quality. Note that if the individual is large and the weight is light, the skin will be thick and the meat will be less, and the taste will not be very good.
