In Season:

In Season Now: Watermelon

Fresh, juicy watermelon is synonymous with summer. A staple of every backyard barbeque, this fruit is high in vitamins C and A, and also in lycopene, which is responsible for reducing inflammation in the body. When picking a watermelon, look for one that’s dull (not shiny) and uniform in shape with a yellowish spot on one side, which indicates the place where the melon rested on the ground while ripening.
