Going against all conventional wisdom, I picked the palest, cleanest watermelon in the cardboard playpen. Yep, the one on the middle left side. The third time’s the charm, right? Well, my third watermelon of the 2024 fresh produce season was yet another “meh” melon. The first melon was a complete dud – bland and tasteless. I put that down to impatience on my part. It was mid-May, way too early for a spectacular high summer watermelon even if it was shipped in from Ecuador. Is it even summer in Ecuador?...
