Eggplants are chilling sensitive (surface pitting, scald, browned flesh and seeds followed by decay), lose water quickly, bruise easily, and should never be held in contact with ice. Sensitive to ethylene: keep away from ethylene-producing fruit. Highest freezing point: -0.8°C. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
