Signs that Watermelon Is Bad
Sometimes spoiled watermelon looks and smells fine. This is often the case with cut melon that’s been sitting in a container in your fridge for a week or so. Here's a checklist for questionable watermelon.
-
Smell: This is the most noticeable sign. If it smells bad, it is bad.
-
Taste: Even if the exterior looks okay, there’s a chance that the fruit could have gone bad. If you bit into a piece of watermelon that looked and smelled fine but its tastes sour or has a fizzy sensation on your tongue, throw it out.
-
Feel: A slimy or slippery feel is another indication that something is amiss. Don't rinse it off. Just pitch it.
-
Looks: If the flesh has noticeable dark spots or is covered in anything slimy or fuzzy, you should toss it.
-
Best-before date: Pre-cut watermelon packages tend to be tagged with an expiration date. Of course, most foods aren’t guaranteed to spoil by that date, so it’s best to know what to look for. Again, you want to avoid melon that's slimy, discolored, weird-smelling, or growing anything fuzzy.
How Long to Store Watermelon
It’s best to eat pre-cut watermelon within 5 days of buying the fruit. Self cut Watermelon and stored in an airtight container in the fridge should also be eaten within 5 days. A whole watermelon can last in your kitchen for about 1 week , and in the fridge for about 2 weeks. But really, why would you ever wait 14 whole days to slice into that melon?.
