Best Answer
it depends on how much acid is in a fruit. If there is a lot of acid the pH is low, and the fruit is sour. If the pH is high, the fruit is more likely to be sweeter, and there is little acid in the fruit.
The acid that causes the sourness in the fruit can vary, but is in many cases citric or ascorbic acid.
