Yellow Watermelon

October 29th, 2005 • Related • Filed Under

I picked up a three pound yellow watermelon at the Noe Valley Farmer’s Market today. I bought it from “the guy who always charges more for his stuff than the other farms.”

At $2 a pound it was twice as much as the melons Beth normally buys. However, he had cornered the market on yellow watermelon, so I had no choice. Surely, I could not pass up something labeled “Korean Yellow Watermelon?”

I ate half for dessert. It was not the best watermelon I ever ate. It was, however, the best yellow watermelon I ever ate.

Fun fact: China grows over 2/3rds of all watermelons worldwide. That’s a lot of fruit for dessert.
