How do I buy a perfect watermelon?!


Question: How do I buy a perfect watermelon!?
Answers:
It is difficult to determine whether a watermelon is flavorful without cutting it open and tasting it!. Select watermelons that are firm, free of bruises, and heavy!. Ripe melons generally have a nice sheen to their outer skin and a yellow spot on their underside, which remains from where the melon grew on the ground!. When purchasing a precut watermelon, select a watermelon with flesh that is firm, juicy, bright in color and has no visible white streaks!.

I buy one watermelon per day in summer!. I love them!. I only eat the sweetest , best part!. I have read every article on choosing a melon and listened to the "Greengrocer" who used to do radio and tv shows!. Nothing works!. If the outer skin is soft, the melon is almost never good!.
I've tried looking at the size of the yellow spot on the underneath!. Didn't help!. Right now i just try to remember where i got a good one and go back and get a bunch!. I would say that 1 out of 5 is excellent!. 1 out of 3 is OK!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

1!.make a hit on the fruit with your hand, if t sounds like empty, than it means its not good,

but if it sounds like fully filled, you can easilly buy
2!. if outer shell is freash it means its good, but if outer shell is shillinged like puckring on fabric!.!.!.!.

We wonder this also because this yr!.We had one stamped seedless and out popped tons of big black seeds!.Our first one we got at fresh market was super nice and sweet the second one wasnt!.!.!.!?
how can you really tell!?
I always thought you knocked on them to see if they had a solid feel or hollow!?i know the always say smell it when fruits ripe it smells like the fruit!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

i usually go for appearance first, if it looks good it should taste good!. second, you need to knock on the melon and you should listen for a hollow sound!. the hollower the betterWww@FoodAQ@Com

To find the sweet ones, all you do is knock on it with your fist, and listen to the sound!. If it's nice and loud, it's really sweet!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
