How to Pick a Ripe Watermelon

With Memorial Day weekend coming up, it would not be the proper kick off to summer, without watermelon. Growing up I always thought my Mom was just being weird when she would painstakingly knock on every watermelon in the store. She said it was her trick to finding the ripe one. But, I couldn't tell the difference. As I knocked on each melon, it sounded the same. I eventually would just bust out a drum solo and continue shopping.

In order to REALLY find out the secret to picking the perfect watermelon, take some advice from a produce clerk.
