– Assess the tomatoes visually, they should be free of damage, dents, putrefactive spots and dots. The color must be uniform;
– Ripe tomatoes will be firm to the touch. Too hard – not yet ripe, and too soft – have already begun to deteriorate;
– Smell the tomato, the smell should be pleasant, rich, tomato. Odorless tomatoes were most likely grown with the use of pesticides, and those with a sour smell have already begun to deteriorate;
– The use of chemicals during the cultivation of tomatoes is also evidenced by a thick and rough skin;
