I had a guy ask a question yesterday for which I didn't have a good answer.
He had purchased peaches from another orchard and complained the peaches had
"mold" next to the pit. What he described was a white substance next to the
pit, not unusual in freestone peaches. At one time I read an article which
described in specifics what the white substance was, but I can't remember
now. I told him it probably wasn't mold, and that it was natural. I'd like
to have a more specific response for my own customers. Anyone know what the
white spots are next to the pit, sometimes seen when breaking open a
freestone peach?
