Answers:
Just color really, I like the green ones with lime juice and salt!.
To eat them, use tongs to hold them cut off the ends,then slice through the skin end to end,peel off the thick skin, slice and eat seeds and all,don't eat too many cuz it will "plugg you up"!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think the redder, the more ripe they are!. If you are picking them yourself, wear gloves!. You can eat them as is and they are very juicy and sweet!. The seeds are edible if you like, otherwise use them for target practice on a friend!Www@FoodAQ@Com
