Below are some tips to distinguish chemically ripened fruits from naturally ripe fruits.
Durian: A ripe durian can be separated by hand, has a unique fragrance, and has large spikes. Whereas a ripe durian that is pressed needs a knife to be separated and tastes very bland without the distinctive aroma. The spikes of the unripe durian are still small and not fully opened.
Banana: Chemically ripened bananas have a shiny yellow color, feel powdery to the touch, have green stems, and have a black core.
