Ready to eat, as fruit (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ripe

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">ready to eat as fruit</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for ripe that I've seen before include "green? No!" , "Mature, ready for harvesting" , "Ready (to be eaten or used)" , "Mature, ready to eat" , "Mature for eating like fruit" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
