Guest guest Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Am I correct in thinking that all fruits are supposed to be eaten only thoroughly ripe because unripe fruits contain too much starch? Or is it just bananas? Also, what about winter squash? I think technically they're fruit. I cut open a delicata squash the other day and thought it had been picked before fully ripe, but I wasn't sure. The skin was greenish, the flesh was yellow with a green tinge, the seeds looked mature...I cooked it and tasted it, and it wasn't sweet at all like a delicata should be. So I wasn't sure it was ok to feed to my daughter. (I ate some and gave some to the dog...) TIA. Kayla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
