How to choose a juicy melon: top tips

However, along with the growth of its popularity, a number of not tasty melons appear on the market at all, which can even cause poisoning. To avoid this, be sure to use the following life hacks for choosing a melon.

Smell

The melon's juiciness determines its smell. The sweet berry contains a very delicate and pleasant aroma that gives off ripeness. If you notice that the melon has no smell, it may indicate that it is not ripe. In the case when the melon exudes the smell of greenery, one can suspect it of being spoiled.

Sound

This method is similar to choosing a watermelon. You can check the juiciness of the berry by cotton on the peel. A ripe berry will give off a dull sound. But a sonorous one is a sign of her depravity.

Peel

Want to know another secret? Then pay attention to the peel. The crust of fresh melon should be firm when pressed with your finger. But if you feel that it is too soft, and after pressing it, fingerprints remain on it, this is a sure sign that it is time to throw the melon in a landfill.

Attention to place 

Experts advise in no case to buy a melon near the road or in a market where sanitary standards are not observed. Berries should be stored in a special hangar and not on the ground. If you notice such a fact, in no case give money to this seller.
