Usual signs of spoiling include brown or otherwise miscoloured patcches on the skin, wrinkles in the skin, soft patches in the flesh, holes in the skin or an unpleasant smell, like cider. These can differ slightly, depending on the type of apple. If buying apples, feel them carefully for soft patches, if picking them, don't take them off the ground, only off the tree, and check carefully for punctures caused by insects.

the banana will color change over time from green to bright yellow to a brighter yellow and then eventually start to turn brown. once its in the stage of yellow to brown color it is starting to rot. plus the banana will lose its firm texture and start to feel soft and mushy. there usually good when you buy them dark green for approximentally a week stored at room temperature.
