Watermelon Know How

Choose a watermelon that has a smooth, waxy surface and a

creamy-colored underside. If the underside is white or greenish, the watermelon is not ripe. Hearing a thud when you tap the watermel-on slightly with the palm of your hand is another sign of ripeness. If you hear a ringing sound, the

melon is not ripe.
