if it is still green and has been cut / removed from the plant then it will not ripen the same as it would have if it had ripened on the vine. Strawberries aren't like tomatoes they will not taste good if picked green. Must be red before picking.
Oranges generally won't ripen once removed from the tree.

It depends on whether the orange is picked or not. An orange does not continue to ripen after being picked. You might have heard they ripen quicker in the dark because in tropical areas it takes a cool night for the vivid color to set in. However, the oranges color does not always indicate its ripeness. For instance, most Florida oranges are dyed in order to enhance their appeal to consumers.
Yes, red peppers start off green and then turn red as they ripen.
Oranges do not continue to ripen significantly after being picked, as they are non-climacteric fruits. Unlike climacteric fruits like bananas or tomatoes that can ripen post-harvest, oranges develop their sweetness and flavor primarily while still on the tree. However, they can soften slightly and improve in taste if stored properly. For the best flavor, it’s ideal to consume them when they're fully ripe on the tree.
To ripen unripe oranges quickly, place them in a paper bag with a ripe banana or apple. The ethylene gas released by the banana or apple will help speed up the ripening process. Keep the bag at room temperature and check the oranges daily until they reach the desired ripeness.
To ripen oranges quickly and effectively, place them in a paper bag with a ripe banana or apple.
