What is the origin of the idiom "pick and choose" and when to use it?

The idiom "pick and choose" originated from the combination of the words "pick" and "choose," which individually mean to select or make a choice. The exact origin of this phrase is difficult to trace, as it likely developed naturally within the English language over time. The concept of picking and choosing has been ingrained in human decision-making for centuries. The phrase itself has been in common usage for several centuries, appearing in written works as early as the 16th century. It has since become a widely recognized idiom that conveys the act of carefully selecting or making choices. It is commonly employed in situations where individuals have the freedom or opportunity to be selective.
