As the summer has started, mango season also has started. Peak season for mangoes is May.It will take atleast 2 weeks for a mango to ripe. But to make this process fast, some people are using carbide stones to ripe mangoes fast in 4 days. These type of mangoes are not good for health and may cause some disorders as carbide contains arsenic and phosphorus.

Now the question is how to find these type of mangoes?
1. Carbide mangoes will be more shining and softer than normally ripen mangoes.
2. Carbide mangoes won't have any shrink on the skin.
3. Carbide mangoes will be sour slightly but normally ripen mangoes will be sweet.

So please check the mangoes before eating.

Yes.. timely warning and nice information shared by Meean. Calcium carbide used to ripen mangoes artifivailly is not safe, so it is better to wait till mid-season and select mangoes with care and from a trusted place.

Another way to identify bad mangoes:
* Will give off pungent smell and lighter in weight
** Bear white marks of calcium carbide powder
