Quick Tip
There are several keys to finding the perfect watermelon. The first thing you should do is pick the watermelon up—it should feel heavier than it looks. Secondly, the watermelon should have a deep yellow patch on the bottom, which lets you know that it was allowed to ripen on the vine and is ready for eating.
