The database has multiple sizes. What is considered a large melon?

    Don't you know how much trouble you can get into around here by asking questions about fruit? :tongue: Also, wouldn't it depend on the size of the melon?

    I always check the Grapes and the stem. When the Stem is big that means the Grapes are full and ready to explode. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Okay so then we can logically deduce that eating fruit and fruit alone will eventually give you large melons, yes?

    I've always heard a melon larger than one's hand is just wasted melon.

    Yeah, I knew that one but the database has small, medium and large. How many pounds for it to be a large melon?

    Exactly. Sometimes it takes two hands to cover a melon. In which case consider yourself lucky.

    Maybe the person I was sharing them with didn't actually like melons. =( How tragic, since they're so good for you.

    No, but always my banana. You need to know if it's a 6" - 6 7/8" banana or a 7" - 7 7/8" banana. I hear women don't really care what size your banana is though, as long as you know what to do with it. Right? Right?!

    I usually weigh myself first....then place couple melons on top of me (to keep them balanced...of course) and measure myself again....thus I can find out their weigth. Simple plan :drinker:

    Well I am assuming the large melons have more juicy calories than the small & medium

    hmmm well either way I use the two hand weighing system. Make sure they are both evenly proportioned and the eye is centered. Sometimes you get those fake plastic melons and the eye of the fruit is all over and they taste funny
