the bigger the better...that rule applies for everything pleasurable in life

Oh you big tease. If I really like the garden they're growing in, it doesn't matter what size the watermelons are. Nor the tomatoes, or the squash, or the tulips, cantelopes, blueberries, rhubarb... It's all good when the garden is fertile and happy! If I have a choice I guess I prefer those Findhorn gardens with the jumbo vegetables. I could live in a garden like that and never want to leave.

Size has nothing to do with it ! It's all about age , colour & appeal !

Same for water melons !

Hmmm...I don't know if size has anything to do with being better or not...what you want is ripeness, sweetness, juicyness...if that all happens to come in a bigger package, so much the better!

Medium, too big cant fit the fridge and too small wont taste good,

Watermelons are like mother in laws, till you bring it home there is no way to know, do not get fouled by the size or weight.

Marty

you thump them for ripeness, but size depends on how many people are going to be sharing it.

mid size. I odn't want it to be too big. It gets heavy. The littles are a tad bit too small

I find the smaller ones to be sweeter

I like women with big watermelons.

Look for the watermelon which is fully developed by that i mean u'd find a deep dent on the tip of the melon thats how u know if the melon is right for consumption. But apart from that it depends on the melons basic genetic composition. It's like u shud get lucky to find the right one at times. But u have to keep ur eyes open for it's skin texture to be good the melons fullness shud be good too not light in weight but heavy when u hold it. and the flower at the base of the melon shud have dried and dropped off .

size does not matter in watermelon, if it rings it is great
Sahtein!!

You want to get a watermelon with the bottom side yellow you may have to look at lots of them but get the one that has the Yellowest (new word) it will be the best and sweetest
big or small doesn't really matter
also try to buy from a person or farmer's market rather than a grocery store

It has nothing to do with the size.The only way to know would be to taste it.

LOL@Josh i agree with him.

i dont know honestly, i dont really like watermelons, and cant stand cantaloupes either,

Look for the "scars"on it. They call them sugar cracks. The more the better. It should sound hollow when you thump it.

hasafer

I like a big sweet one , and sure mature or should I say ripe loool

bek

once you had 1 you had them all no matter wot size it is.

I usually get pre-sliced, since I will only be able to eat so much before it gets rotten.

60% depends on your luck...........and 70% of the big ones taste bad..........Enjoy your watermelon...after the raw liver....

Silky

Well, I hate XXL double whoppers as well, it's a matter of taste. But they sure make you feel full. That nobody can argue with.
