Never fuck with the stuff
Good info
Good luck with that bruh.
I'll check for a few of those things, but not all.
That nigga gon' have me in produce lookin' like I'm doing an autopsy on the melon.
I be in and out the grocery store w/ the quickness!!!
I don't mind doing all that to make sure that I get a good watermelon. So, if you wanna gamble not doing all that then fine but it would be a waste of money throwing the watermelon out since you didn't check it properly of what this video showed.
Sounds about white.
I use to work in a warehouse as a receiver and the quality control guys would do same checks as the brotha in the video so most likely you’ll be good
1 year ban
Im 0for 3 finding a good melon so far fhis summer. Seedless melons are garbage. I need to find a good natural melon
Fuck y'all
I can't stand bananas neither.
Why not fam? Just trying to be curious, not judgmental.
The peel does wonders for bumps, cuts, etc when you rub themFuck y'all
You missing out, watermelon is the shit!Fuck y'all
Just never really liked them.
Don't tell the whites, but I regularly eat a whole goddamned watermelon by myself in one sitting. I have to buy 2 so the wife and trophy can get any.
You gotta copy the link first from Instagram and then find a Instagram downloader and then paste the link and click download.
You'll always be playing Russian roulette with watermelons, he did all that and that watermelon he cut was too ripe. I've always did all those checks and got home and the watermelon wasn't even eatable. I just came from Publix getting some fruit and I decided to just get some precut watermelon slices instead of rolling the dice on an uncut one
Unless you saw some visual evidence of decay, like the texture was crumbling and not firm I don't know how the hell you could tell it was over-rippened through your screen. Elucidate.
My non scientific approach has been to thump. The most hollow sounding one is the most ripe. That and checking for the largest yellow spot. Was told that means it was on the vine the longest.
-You're worried about what others will think of you looking and touching fruit that you're paying for in a store,so just imagine how you pick your meats,breads and other items that some have picked over before you got em BEING WORRIED ABOUT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE WILL THINK ABOUT YOU IN A STORE.
-I've did all of that plus thumping and shit is still a gamble,but what I do is make sure to buy fruit like in July after the stores sold off that first batched of old frozen fruit from last season that didn't sell and that's a gamble too.
As a child I remember us getting most of our fruits,peanuts,pecans from some older black men from the side of a road but in 2023 their no longer around ....it also was a different time where you could trust people.

Yeah, thanks but that's too much work for the kid.
You are correct. All melons are a crap shoot. Just have to try your best to find a sweet one and cross your fingers.
as someone who has gotten more than their fair share of bad watermelons I could tell, plus I can pinch to zoom on my S8 ULTRA so I could also tell by that way. Even a watermelon farmer will tell you there's no fool proof way to tell if a watermelon is good, there was one who i used to go to who would let you cut the watermelon before you leave to make sure if it was good or not

It ALWAYS someone that tries to interpret shit the wrong way!!!
Ya'll think you callin' somebody out or some shit
I don't want to do all that shit just for time sake!
You will be trying to find the right melon for 20 minutes doing all that shit.
I don't give a shit what others think, just don't want to spend all that time looking for the right melon and get home and it's shit anyway!!!
