Watermelon is considered America's favorite fruit. The
name watermelon goes back to prehistoric times. In times
of drought, these melons were cultivated as a source of
water. Picking a good watermelon takes special skill. Pick
up the watermelon and thump it gently in the middle. You
should be listening for a deep and hallow thud. You should
also feel the thud reverberate through to your other hand.
