How to Tell If a Mango Is Naturally Ripened (Not Carbide Ripened)
Most mangoes in markets today are ripened using calcium carbide, a chemical that speeds up the process but is harmful to your health. At ASD Orchards, we believe in doing it the natural way—sunshine, patience, and hardwork.
🌿 Why Natural Ripening Matters
-
✅ Chemical-Free: No toxic residue like carbide.
-
✅ Better Taste & Aroma: Naturally ripened mangoes have a richer flavor and natural smell.
-
✅ Health-Safe: Carbide-ripened mangoes can cause headaches, dizziness, and stomach issues.
-
✅ Longer Shelf Life: Natural ripening keeps the fruit's enzymes intact.
