ALL ABOUT WATERMELON

It’s Always “Watermelon Season” Somewhere

From the U.S. to Mexico, the fruit that refreshes and awakens year-round.

Watermelon

Have you ever wondered how to pick out a good watermelon at the grocery store? Just remember: Look, Lift, Turn

  1. Look the watermelon over. Look for a firm watermelon that is free from bruises, cuts or dents.

  2. Lift the watermelon up. At 92% water, the watermelon should be heavy for its size.

  3. Turn the watermelon over. Look for a creamy yellow spot on the underside of the watermelon (called the “ground spot”). This is where it sat on the ground and ripened in the sun.
