In fact, a kind of counterfeiting of black goji berries is to dye white thorn fruits, or blueberries with food coloring, to make fake black goji berries.

Now that we know the way to fake black goji berries, now the editor will share with you in detail how to distinguish the true and false black goji berries for different ways of counterfeiting, and we must use different methods to identify different ways of cheating:
How to identify before buying:
First of all, we can’t see black goji berries before we buy them, so how do I tell the difference? We can’t see black goji berries before we buy them, and we can prevent ourselves from buying fake black goji berries from the following 3 aspects:
- From the price of black goji berries to distinguish, the current market price of black goji berries are 500 yuan / jin – 800 yuan / jin, if you want to buy the price of black goji berries is too low, below 400 yuan / jin, you should be careful. Why is the price of his black goji berries so low, I think there are only 2 reasons, either they produce black goji berries themselves, it is a first-hand source of black goji berries (such as Silk Road Agricultural Information Network) or black goji berries are fake and inferior, only fake and inferior black goji berries have low costs, and the price he sells is naturally relatively low. By the level of price, it is possible to tell whether the black goji berry is real before buying.
- When buying black goji berries, you can ask more questions related to black goji berries, such as how to distinguish the true and false black goji berries, what are the characteristics of fake black goji berries, and how to eat black goji berries. As a person who sells real black goji berries, you will give you a detailed answer, if their answer is more ambiguous, then you should buy it in another place, so as not to buy fake black goji berries.
- When we buy black goji berries, we can choose some guaranteed places to buy (Jingdong, Tmall, Silk Road Agricultural Information Network) Although the price is a little higher, but the after-sales is guaranteed, good don’t buy black goji berries in WeChat The quality and after-sales are not guaranteed, and the price is still very high.
You mainly go to the above 3 points before buying and you can avoid buying fake black goji berries to a great extent. The following is to share with you in detail how to distinguish the true and false after buying black goji berries:
After buying black goji berries, there are 4 ways to distinguish the real from the fake.
How to distinguish the true and false black goji berries method one: After the black goji berries are bought back, we can first open the lid to smell the smell of black goji berries, good black goji berries have a light grassy taste, that taste is very comfortable. If you smell pungent, your black goji berries are in question.
How to distinguish black goji berries from real and fake method two: gently touch the black goji berries with your hands to see if they will be dyed on their hands, good black goji berries will not be dyed on their hands gently molded by hand, if you touch the first hand with the dyeing of the hand indicates that it is a fake dyed black goji berry. Then we picked up a black goji berry early and crushed the black goji berry vigorously, to see how many granular seeds there are in some black goji berries, real black goji berries have about 10 small seeds in them, fake black goji berries have only one large core (replaced by white thorn fruit) that is fake black goji berries.
How to distinguish the true and false black goji berries method three: is to directly use the method of soaking water to identify the true and false black goji berries, this method is the most direct and effective, real black goji berries have a feature is that the color of soaking out in different water is different, with tap water (the pH value of water is acidic) when soaked is generally purple, but with mineral water (the pH value of water is alkaline) bubbled out of the color is blue. We can first use tap water to heat to 50 degrees to soak to see if the soaked water is purple, is purple is the meaning is true, not the description is fake, you can also use mineral water to warm to 50 degrees to soak, see if the soaked water is blue, is blue means is real black goji berries, not blue means is fake black goji berries, do this experiment when the water temperature can not exceed 50 degrees, too high temperature will destroy the black goji berries in anthocyanins, will not achieve the effect of the experiment. If the fake black goji berries will generally bubble out will appear brown, brown, black, yellow, etc., the color of the black goji berry bubble water you buy can be compared with the picture below, and you can quickly distinguish the real and fake black goji berries.
The above is just to give everyone how to distinguish the true and false black goji berries, but many people will encounter a problem when buying black goji berries, many merchants say that the black goji berries they sell are wild, but now many black goji berries sold on the market are planted, and many people do not know how to distinguish wild black goji berries and all kinds of black goji berries, Xiaobian also shares with you the method of identification:
- The difference between wild black goji berries and planted black goji berries in appearance is that wild black goji berries are relatively small, not very good-looking, planted black goji berries are relatively large and look smooth.
- The difference between wild black goji berries and planted black goji berries is that the anthocyanin content they contain is different. The anthocyanin content of wild black goji berries is twice that of planted black goji berries, so a good way to distinguish is to look at the color of the water and the number of times it is soaked. Wild black goji berries soaked in water color is very dark, the same is 10 black goji berries soaked in water, wild black goji berries can be brewed 6 times, the color of the water is still very dark, but the planted black goji berries value can be brewed 3 times and there is no color. We distinguish wild and grown black goji berries well from the color and number of times we soak in water
I believe that everyone looks at these for wild black goji berries and planting black goji berries are very clear, well, this time how to distinguish black goji berries true and false methods are shared here, after reading if you sell black goji berries and buy fake black goji berries don’t blame me, Silk Road Agricultural Information Network provides pure wild black goji berries (wholesale price oh) need black goji berries contact us customer service.
To distinguish the true and false black goji berries, we must first know what the real black goji berries are like and what characteristics they have:
The characteristics of real black goji berries learned from soaking water are: soaked in water at 60 degrees, soaked with different water quality will have different colors, you can compare pictures with pictures. If the black goji berry water you bought is not this color, it may be fake. There is also the real black goji berry soaking water is not not drunk if you put there for a long time his color will be darker and darker, if your black goji berry is over time the color becomes lighter or discolored, it means that it is fake.
Second, the authenticity of black goji berries can be distinguished from the following 4 aspects:
- Distinguish the true from the appearance
Goji berries are spiny shrubs, multi-branched, hard branches, berries purple-black, globular, sometimes slightly concave at the tip, 4–9 mm in diameter. More than 95% of black goji berries have a stalk, and the fruit contains 5-8 seeds, which dry thoroughly and become powder with a pinch of the hand. The white thorn fruit is dark red, has no stalk, the fruit is ripe and the stalk automatically falls off, single-core, and very hard when pinched by hand. Blueberries are purplish-black in color, have no stalk, and are seedless.
Looking at the fruit stalk, the stem of Qinghai black goji berry is gray-white, and if a large number of fruit stems are blue, they must be dyed.
- Identify advantages and disadvantages from the place of origin
Good wild black goji berries are produced in Qinghai, because the anthocyanin content in black goji berries produced in Qinghai reaches more than four points, which is higher than that of black goji berries in Xinjiang, Gansu and other places, and the origin is different and the price is different. Real black goji berries, especially those grown in the wild, have precious resources and limited production, and one pound costs at least about two thousand yuan. The fruits of other counterfeit black goji berries are often no more than 100 yuan high per catty. If you encounter black goji berries that are too cheap, everyone should be vigilant, maybe it is a counterfeit.
Black goji berries have ultra-high health and nutritional value, and have been very sought after in the market in the past two years, and their prices have soared. Some unscrupulous traders, driven out by interests, are oblivious to profit, shoddy and false. The majority of consumers must keep their eyes open when purchasing, remember the method of distinguishing the true and false black goji berries, and ensure that they can buy real black goji berries
- Distinguish the real from the brewing color
The color of black goji berry bubble water is very strong, blue in tap water (acidic water quality) and purple in mineral water (alkaline water quality); Low sugar content and slightly sweet water. The white thorn fruit bubble water is very light in color, high in sugar content, and sweet in taste. Blueberry fruit is lighter in color, higher in sugar content and sweeter in flavor after soaking in water.
Authentic black goji berries are placed in tap water, and the blue color appears like silk thread. The dyed fruit, as soon as it is put into the water, a large blue color appears. In the case of dyed black goji berries, brewing generally has only one color, and will not have different colors under different conditions.
- Distinguish the real from the selling price
As the saying goes, you get what you pay for, this is also reliable on black goji berries, real black goji berries, especially those grown in the wild, have precious resources and limited yield, at least a kilogram of more than a thousand yuan. With other counterfeit fruits, 1 kilogram is less than 200 yuan. If you encounter black goji berries that are too cheap, everyone should be vigilant.
