Ripe Limes

Question

Do limes have a lifespan once they’ve been brought home from the grocery store? If it’s partially green and yellow, is that a sign to use it as soon as possible to maintain fresh taste?

Answer 1

Limes become over ripe once they turn yellow. If your lime is reaching this point, use it right away. Grocery bought limes should always be used as soon as possible.
