Kovanova emphasized that the watermelon rind should be dense and without defects.

"Avoid cuts, dents. Pay attention to the evenness of the color. Yellow spots on the sides are acceptable, but gray or brown ones are not. Feel free to sniff: if the watermelon has a sharp, sour flavor, don't take it," Kovanova said.

She added that watermelons should not be stored in the sun, and it is not recommended to buy the fruit hot to the touch.
