Before you eat guavas, you must first determine when is the best time to eat them.
• Texture: Ripe guavas are softer.
• Color: Ripe guavas have a yellowish color. If you don't find any that are yellow, you can always buy green guava and wait for them to ripen. (You can find a guide to the ripening process on our clamshells.)
• Smell: Ripe guavas have a sweet scent without even having to put it up to your nose.
Wash the entire guava fruit thoroughly with cold water, and dry it after.
Simply give it a bite afterward. The skin, flesh, and seeds are all edible.
