    Here tips to never bought a tasteless dragon fruit:
    1. First pick the fruit with the most vivid color
    2. Check the softer leaves, the softer it is the sweeter the fruit
    So if you want the mid sweet fruit go for the most vivid color but with not so soft leaves.
    Thank me later
    Also here the fruit is just $1 each, pretty cheap.

    Most dragonfruit you can get in the store are not picked when ripe, they are picked early and let ripen as they are shipped. This destroys any chance they have to develop the proper flavor and sweetness they have when let ripen on the cactus. I strongly urge you to at some point go somewhere where you can get one at peak ripeness right off the plant. It’s a night and day difference

    the taste of dragon fruit is very mild, and depending on the ripeness can taste gross or great. also, what you eat prior to it can change how you percieve it as well, if you ate candy than had some, you'd think it was gross and a weird texture. if you had just eaten a savoury meal, you'd think is was nicely sweet and refreshing.

  • @miraclewillson5133

    From my experience, the sweetness of a dragon fruit varies from piece to piece. Some dragon fruit are abnormally sweet while others are just water with seeds and fiber. It’s the same with the color on the inside; some are pink and some are white, though the flavor is more a spectrum than a black or white thing.

    I think it depends on where the dragon fruit comes from, because the ones who are purple in the inside taste very sweet and just heavenly and the ones that are white don't taste as good. But I'm not sure why anymore, it's been a long time since I watched the video about them, but I think it has to do with the Climate or the ripe time.

    Dragon fruit is mostly tasteless because they are shipped not-completely-ripe and during shipping it loses most of its taste, sadly.
