When buying one you sniff them at the stem section. No smell - under ripe. The stronger the smell, the more ripe the fruit. Too pungent = over ripe. Refrigerate when they have a strong smell but not too strong. (Too strong =cut up.) Once refrigerated, need to keep checking it. First sign of soft spot - cut up and have to eat within a couple of days. Best tasting is home grown. Not that hard to grow - ground vine that takes up a lot of summer garden space. Usually plant when other plantings start to fade.

It depends on how ripe it was when you bought it and how warm it is in your kitchen. They are usually OK for anywhere from 3 days to a week. However, at the first sign of it developing a mushy spot cut it up and stick it in the fridge.

Mine started misbehaving the instant I turned my back on it.
Two days later, it was threatening the other fruit and extorting money out of the vegetables.
They go bad real quick.
