The problem, I’ve learned, is refrigeration. If at any point the fruit is subjected to temperatures in the range of 36-46F (which growers dub the “killing zone”) there can be internal breakdown causing the peach to be brown and mushy on the inside while looking & feeling like a perfectly ripe peach on the outside!
I am tired of throwing out mushy peaches; now I only buy them at local farms, or travel 2 hours to Indiana to buy Red Havens. It shouldn’t be this hard!!! Why don’t more people know this??
For more info.
