This Scanner Can Predict an Avocado’s Ripeness

It's an avocado lover's new best friend.

The days of struggling to pick out the best fruits on the shelf may be over!

A food-waste reduction company has developed a scanner that can tell you exactly when your next avocado is ripe. It works by reading ripeness levels to help shoppers choose the perfect fruit without squeezing or bruising it. The machines are currently being tested in stores in the UK, with the ultimate goal of helping to reduce waste.
