Let Me Show You How To Pick a Great Watermelon
Just in the past couple of weeks, the good crops of one of my favorite Summertime treats, watermelon, have just started to arrive in Connecticut grocery stores. We're still a few weeks away from Connecticut-grown watermelons, our season runs August - October. There are more than 1,000 varieties of the delicious fruit growing around the world, and as the name says, They're made of 92% water. Watermelon is fat free, high in vitamins, amino acids, and antioxidants.
One of the worst things that can happen is you bought a flavorless, sour melon. It's so disappointing. Now you have 4 pounds of red, watery fiber, and the kids are going to hate it. Boo. I've purchased many watermelons in my lifetime, and I've picked up a couple of pointers along the way to help you pick out a sweet, ripe, juicy watermelon, and I want to share them with you.
