How do you pick out a good kiwi and mango?

Ours tasted a bit sour yesterday. What color should the skin be? How should they feel. My DD9 is wanting to try different fruits.

After much trial and error, I have finally mastered the art of picking out great avocados.

Thanks,

Lori,
Never buy a mango that is hard as a rock. The mango should have some "give" to it and have pleasant orange, yellow, and pink "blush" to it (depends on the variety). I find the smaller, champagne mangos to be much sweeter than the larger mangos.

As for kiwi, you're on your own!! I usually just look for some with a bit of softness to them.
