Flavor, Quality & StorageWhy does an intact mango continue changing after it is picked?

A harvested mango remains living tissue and continues the processes associated with ripening. Mature fruit can soften and develop eating quality after detachment when handled appropriately. Storage conditions affect the pace and success of those changes. Plan purchases around the fruit's current condition instead of treating harvest as the point when its texture and flavor become fixed.
