Maybe it isn't that easy to tell - is that green fruit an under-ripe lemon or a large lime? Why is that green plum ripe and that one not?
Then again we use magic to determine whether stuff is fresh or not - the supermarket label giving the "best before" or "sell by" date. Though I hope Gloranthan magic is more reliable.
