    The fruit is very delicate. It is often damaged by bumps during picking, transportation, storage, sales, and purchase. The flesh becomes soft and leaves many brown spots. The color change of these spots is due to cell damage, cytoplasm overflow, and intracellular The substance undergoes enzymatic browning. Some colorless polyphenols are converted into dark quinones, which make the wound show a special color. This situation is the most common, but it does not produce harmful substances and can be eaten.
