The Smart Shopper’s Guide to Picking the Best Watermelon (Page 2 ) | July 16, 2025

3. Choose the Right Shape

Believe it or not, the shape of your watermelon can indicate sweetness.

🔸 Long, oval-shaped melons (often called “male”) tend to be more watery and less sweet.
🔹 Round, compact melons (“female”) are generally sweeter and more flavorful.

🎯 For the best flavor, go with a round melon.

4. Pick the Right Size & Weight
Size isn’t everything—weight matters more.

✔ Choose a medium-sized watermelon that feels heavy for its size.
This typically means the fruit is full of juice and well-balanced in sweetness—not overly watery.
